Predatek Gob Lock Fish lip gripper

[davo]

Has anyone had experiences with these fish grippers. I'm looking at the 60lb model with the built in scales. Thought about a Boga Grip also. My Berkley ones has started to loose tension so I want a good quality pair.

Mate i've had a set of 30lb bogas for over 7 years they are the go,i havn't seen the predatek's but i know that the berkly's are a very cheap imitation of the bogas.My set have been in a salt water enviroment all their live's and never get washed and i have often used them as a macky donga when it get's kaos.They have not rusted one bit they are quality.Cheers Dan............

Dan,
About the Boga's. Does the scale mechanism lock off. I mean if I had a 30lb model and lifted a 40lb fish would it stuff the scales?
