SRT Carp Instinct 50KG Scale

At Gerry’s Fishing, we know that accuracy and reliability are paramount on the bank. The SRT Carp Instinct 50KG Scale is an essential piece of kit designed specifically for the serious specimen angler, ensuring every trophy catch is recorded with precision and ease.

Product Details and Uses

Built to withstand the harsh realities of the bankside environment, the SRT Carp Instinct Scale features a heavy-duty ABS plastic body and a highly durable front panel. This robust construction protects the internal mechanics from knocks, drops, and the elements, guaranteeing reliable performance session after session. Capable of weighing fish up to a massive 50 kilograms, it is perfectly suited for targeting monster carp, massive pike, and even heavy-hitting catfish.

Reading your catch’s weight has never been easier, thanks to the scale’s prominent red needle pointer. This high-visibility indicator stands out sharply against the durable dial face, allowing for quick, accurate readings even in low-light conditions at dawn or dusk. Furthermore, the scale comes complete with heavy-duty hanging accessories, meaning it is ready to be paired with your favourite weigh sling or tripod right out of the box.

Gerry’s Fishing Pro Tip

Perfecting Your Weigh-In: To get the most accurate reading possible, always “zero” your scale before placing the fish on it. Hang your wet weigh sling on the SRT Carp Instinct Scale’s hook, and use the adjustment dial to bring the red needle exactly back to zero. This ensures the weight of the sling is entirely deducted, giving you the true weight of your prized catch every single time.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Does this scale require batteries?

No, the SRT Carp Instinct 50KG Scale features a robust mechanical design. This means it is highly reliable in all weather conditions, especially freezing temperatures, and you will never be caught out by dead batteries on the bank.

Are the hanging hooks strong enough for 50kg?

Yes. The scale comes supplied with heavy-duty hanging accessories that are specifically rated to safely handle the maximum 50kg capacity of the scale, ensuring your catch is secure during the weigh-in process.

Is the ABS plastic housing waterproof?

While the ABS plastic body and durable front panel are highly water-resistant and designed to withstand heavy rain and damp bankside conditions, it is best practice to dry your scale before storing it in your tackle box to maintain the internal mechanics over the long term.
