Product Information

Full details

Designed for dedicated carp anglers, the Korda Reuben Heaton 120lb scales provide professional-grade accuracy and rugged durability for weighing trophy-sized catches. These scales are built to withstand harsh bankside conditions, offering a clear, reliable reading every time; however, users should note that they require careful handling to maintain their precision, as they are a sensitive mechanical instrument rather than a basic digital tool.

FAQs

Are these scales waterproof?

They are highly corrosion-resistant and water-resistant, but they are not fully waterproof and should not be submerged.

Do I need batteries for these scales?

No, these are mechanical analog scales and do not require any batteries.

What is the smallest increment these scales measure?

This model features 4oz increments.

Can I use these scales for other species?

Yes, they are suitable for any fish that requires weighing up to 120lb, provided they can be safely secured in a weigh sling.

How do I ensure the most accurate reading?

Always zero the scales with your wet sling attached before weighing the fish, and ensure the scale is hanging vertically without movement.

Troubleshooting

Scale pointer is not resting on zero

Adjust the top-mounted knurled knob until the needle aligns perfectly with the zero mark.

Dial reading appears jumpy or inconsistent

Check that the hook or hanging point is not catching on the housing and that the scale is held perfectly still.

Lens is dirty or hard to see through

Clean gently with a microfiber cloth and a mild lens cleaning solution; avoid abrasive cleaners that may scratch the surface.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Extremely durable polycarbonate housing
  • Easy to read dial with high-visibility pointer
  • Simple manual zeroing system
  • Highly corrosion-resistant for wet conditions

Cons

  • Mechanical design requires more care than digital models
  • Heavier to carry than compact digital alternatives
  • 4oz increments may be too coarse for tournament-specific needs

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To setup, ensure the scales are hung from a stable, vertical support—such as a tripod or a sturdy branch—to avoid skewed readings. Always ensure the scale is zeroed with your wet weigh sling before adding the fish.

Regarding compatibility, these scales feature standard hook-and-loop points that fit almost all traditional carp weigh slings. For care, wipe down the polycarbonate body with a soft, damp cloth after every session to remove mud or debris. Never submerge the scales in water. Store them in a protective pouch to avoid deep scratches on the polycarbonate lens, which could obscure the dial readings over time.
