What is it?
When fishing with kids or beginner anglers, it’s important to keep the experience interactive to prevent them from losing interest. Have the proper equipment for your day of fishing, as well as plenty of snacks, drinks and games (the action is not always fast). It may not be the first thing on the list when taking kids to catch fish, but a scale to weigh fish will help add to the experience.
What sets it apart?
Ugly Stik is known for producing products that are built to put up with the rough and tough abuse that anglers often put their gear through. From use in foul weather, to moving in and out of the boat, rolling around in the tacklebox or weighing big fish, the Ugly Tuff scales will handle anything you can throw at them. They are available in four different models, designed for any situation and feature rugged components and nonslip grips for wet and slimy environments. Living up to the Ugly Stik name, the scales are available in three digital models as well as a mechanical model.
How do I use it?
Regardless of the circumstances, the Ugly Tuff scales have you covered. The kids will be entertained and can keep track of their catches with the correct scale for the situation.
Ugly Tuff Lip Grip with Mechanical Scale
The mechanical scale has a 360-degree swivel head and is a 50-pound scale. The nonslip long grip is perfect for wet and muddy conditions and can handle both big and small fish. It comes with a seven-year warranty and a stainless-steel design for increased longevity.
Ugly Tuff Lip Grip with Digital Scale
The digital version of the Lip Grip is made for fish up to 75 pounds and can store up to eight different weights at one time. It has a red backlight for ease of use during the nighttime and includes the battery needed to operate it.
Ugly Tuff Digital Scale – 75-Pound and 150-Pound
The digital Ugly Tuff 75- and 150-pound scales are packed with the same durable, stainless-steel frame while boasting Ugly Tuff handles that fold out for extra grip in wet or slimy conditions. They are built to handle everything from small fish to even the biggest saltwater fish, and the red backlight will keep you on the water longer, even in the dark. They feature no-tear clips for a safe, healthy return to the water, and each scale comes with the AAA batteries needed for operation. Both models are able to store up to eight weights, making them ideal for fun fishing with the family or fishing competitive tournaments. The 150-pound scale comes with a seven-year warranty.
