I use the digital reubens, smaller that the old dials and weight locks in once its decided the weight. Can't argue weights then, I've had a few 29 15 and 39 15 this year,

Is there a mini set of Reubens to go with it too?
Be sweet if there was something half the size for us anglers who travel light.

It all depends on where you need to store it. Mines in my scale pouch along with my care kit and forceps. A standard bar wouldnt fit, this one is perfect for my needs.

True, but they're nice, and if you want one why not

But a weigh bar that folds in half still takes up the volume of space.
A standard bar is long and slim, this one is short but thicker.
As you say if you haven't got a weigh bar then this could be one to consider but if you already have a standard one then I'd rather spend the money on something else. In my case it would be weigh staff.

It weights near enough nothing and folds down to the size of a box of bags. Good bit of kit if you havent already got one or want to save space and weight

Does this Jag weigh bar really save weight and space over a normal weigh bar.

I've got one of these and it is a good tool albeit a little pricey for what it is. I wish it had been wider as I find your hands feel a little too close together when lifting up the weigh sling. But it does the job and is neat and compact.

Digis peaked my interest last year so I bought a RH9000 and a cheap luggage scale for £3.80 odd from Ebay, both as accurate as each other, though I'm still not sure I'll be changing from my dials. The luggage are so small, I'm going to try them along with my flyweight for other species and if impressed it'll replace them.

That's one of many reasons why I don't use digital scales. Yes the needle on analogues may move slightly but I can always get a reading that I'm happy with.

If I use a pole or a weigh bar nowadays the fish could weigh 0-45lb, it changes every millisecond...  forced to use a tripod, hence liking but not buying the Jag one

Ok it's a weigh bar and it folds but at the end of the day it's a weigh bar.
I find a pole much easier and stable to use and is why I gave up on weigh bars years ago.

I've liked the look of those for quite a while

Got this and what a great little tool, it was not cheap £39.99 but light and compact and does the job really well instead of struggling with a pole. Would recommend it.
