Gary Prerost:
Is there a there a formula ie length by girth measurement that would give you a weight that would be accurate I know fly fishermen chasing W/R Tarpon in florida have it down pat.

Chuen Fan:
Gary, if you do a search on the forum you'll find the formula for estimating weights of GTs. There was a thread on it quite a while back.

Jon Jarvis:
Ive got a set of Averys Jay. My spring scales only go to 50kg but think that would generally be enough. Calibrated every year.

Stephen Polzin:
I use a cheap set of bathroom scales with a board on top.  Pretty easy and accurate enough.
