just a quick question regarding scales and readings - does anyone have a set of scales that measure in drams? I see so many people claiming fish weights including drams but have never seen a set of scales for fishing that accurate. Am I just being cynical or do they really exist? One very well...

I have had mine for 2 years now, never had any issues and used regularly, not just for fishing. I have to say I did try rechargeable batteries which was a bad move - they just did not last. Since removing them I use the Energizer High Tech batteries (I sell batteries so know the better options)...
