Bahahaha. Thanks Jim. I've never seen flying carp. LolRod Bender wrote:Then feel free to use them! I think you can actually increase the weight of the carp by swinging the scales around in a circular motion! What would also be interesting is seeing how far you can toss them after weighing. Only joking! I always kill them immediately so they don't suffer (don't try what I suggested at home kiddies).raco09 wrote: I rarely fish freshwater unless its for dirty stinky carp.
cheers
Jim

To fish or not to fish...NOT TO FISH ??Yea...like that's even an option !

Weigh him after pulling him out of the drink you reckon? Lolpoodoo wrote:Better bring FC around to your next trip so you can test it out! :tongue:raco09 wrote:Thanks for the info Jimmy. I rarely fish freshwater unless its for dirty stinky carp. Im more a saltwater fisherman. I wouldnt mind the grips so I can weigh fish when i catch them. That is, "when" i do "catch" something. lol :D CheersRod Bender wrote:Not really sure what fish you chase but in freshwater they are bad news! It is an accepted fact that you should never lift a Murray cod (babies exempt) by its head if you intend releasing it! Of course if you are keeping the fish then it doesn't matter. You may know more about the species you would intend on using it for in regards to running the risk of breaking a fish's neck (that's the problem with big cod) before releasing it.

Re: fish lip grips with scales
C'mon guys, although a carp , it's still a fish. As we all know part of the goldfish family too, which alot of people own as pets.
I used to own 2 huge coi carp ( jap goldfish ), they were quite intelligent actually !. They would see me coming with the coi-carp pallets at feeding time and bounce around all excited, I could feed these fish by hand too no worries.
Alot of old memories of my first fishing experiences was fishing carp in the "Hallam/Dandenoing" creeks , it's what got me into fishing , it was better to catch a carp than nothing at all !.
Cheers guys.

Re: fish lip grips with scales
I'm sure they were only joking like myself! As you were with your reference to weighing drugs - a harmelss joke! Also was nothing offensive about your drug reference as far as I'm concerned - just another joke like ours.rixter wrote:C'mon guys, although a carp , it's still a fish.

Re: fish lip grips with scales
probably because you haven't caught one big enough for you to weigh? :tongue: :victory:vinhii wrote:i currently have the fish lip grabber with digi scale exact to the picture.. but with afew tweeking and adjusting i rkn it does the job perfectly and fine.. though i picked mine up for $15 delivered from ebay.
