That is a good idea. Unfortunately here at shasta they would all be set to 1.5, 1.5, 1.5, 1.5, 1.5. Ha Ha. If it had an additional spot for hundredths it might work!
Seems like alot of time would be spent weighing fish, twisting up the numbers and not fishing. I think Jerry might be onto something, be ashame to trow out a fish because the dial got turned!!
The balls feel like they will hold up very well. The cables are also very sturdy thick multistranded stainless cable with plastic sleeve over the top.
As for the numbers changing - unless the fish grow fingers its not going to happen. you have to push the button in the center of the ball and turn it to the number you want.
