we have started tournaments here in ny and we are looking for a fish scale with a weight limit of about 25 to 35 pounds.... anyone know where i could find one???

eBay.....just look up digital scales....should pop up quite a few possibilities

This will also depend on how much money you are willing to spend. You could buy a standard scale and use a fish basket to weigh the fish or you can go all out and get a digital scale. They range around 200.00 and up for a good waterproof tournament scale
