About this item
- This BogaGrip is Model 315: The scale weighs fish up to 15 pounds in 1/4 pound increments. It is 9 inches long and weighs 9 ounces.
- The BogaGrip is designed to promote "catch and release fishing," as it will land, handle, and weigh fish quickly and simultaneously without injury to the fish. It is particularly good for handling fish in cold weather, or hard-to-handle fish.
- The fish's weight is checked by reading the point that the main tube's embossed scale has been pulled down to inside the grip tubing. The fish is released by pulling back on the trigger.
- In use, the fisherman will hold the grip sleeve, and using his index finger or thumb will pull back the trigger sleeve, which causes the jaws to open.
- Made in the USA, and of USA-made materials. All metal parts of the BogaGrip are made of stainless steel. All plastic parts are made from acetal, which is a high-performance engineered thermoplastic that is used in unlubricated bearing applications.

Product Description
Boga Grip Advantages
The Boga Grip is designed to promote "catch and release fishing," as it will land, handle, and weigh fish quickly and simultaneously without injury to the fish. The Boga Grip also affords an easy opportunity to inspect and take pictures of the fish. The Boga Grip is particularly good for handling fish in cold weather, or hard-to-handle fish such as toothy fish. It also keeps a fisherman's hand at a safer distance from hooks.
Boga Grip Design
The BogaGrip is generally tube shaped, with one end serving as the grip and scale, and the other end with a pair of jaws. It has a trigger sleeve that slides along the main tube, serving as an opening and closing means as well as a lock. The grip consists of a sleeve tube covered with a non-slip grip. The main tube has a precision scale embossed in it to match each individual scale spring, and the scale is calibrated using certified weights to insure accuracy within one increment.
Boga Grip Materials
The BogaGrip is made in the USA of USA-made materials. All metal parts of the BogaGrip are made of 300 series stainless steel, except for the precision scale spring, which is 17-7 PH stainless steel. All plastic parts are made from acetal, which is a high-performance engineering thermoplastic that is used in unlubricated bearing applications. Acetal is tough and resilient and is very resistant to UV light. Constructing the BogaGrip of these materials makes it very strong and resistant to conditions encountered while fishing in fresh or saltwater.
Different Models Explained
The Boga Grip is available in three models. Model 315: The scale weighs fish up to 15 pounds in 1/4 pound increments; 9 inches long, weighs 9 ounces.

The Boga is the right and best tool for the job that will last a lifetime!

The Boga is the right and best tool for the job that will last a lifetime!
I needed a fish scale for work. I was concerned about spending the $130...and I wanted a digital scale because it's easier to read. But I have been told by some professionals that the digital scales are not as accurate. So I bought the expensive Boga Grip and wondered if I was wasting my money.
Have you ever driven a car that was somewhat functional but inexpensive, and then either drove or been a passenger in a BMW or Porsche or Bentley? Just sitting in the car you can feel a substantial difference in quality. It's the same first impression with the Boga Grip. This scale is a balanced, solid and remarkable tool. I needed to get it certified at IGFA in case I encountered an angler who catches a world record fish. I sent the scale to IGFA last week to have it tested. To be certified, the scale needs to be accurate within 1/2 pounds in order to pass. Today I received back my Boga Grip scale with IGFA certificate, but here is where it gets interesting. Tested at 1/2 pound intervals, the scale tested dead-on at every single weight up to its 30 pound limit. Yes, the scale performed brilliantly. So, as you are reading this you're wondering if you should spend the extra money to buy the world's finest fish scale and lip grip? The answer is yes,absolutely! You may not be able to afford the Bentley, the BMW or the Porsche, but the Boga Grip is within reach, and should be when you land that monster world-record fish.
I was LUCKY enough to catch a 3lb large mouth on my first trip out with the Boga. This has got to be my favorite fishing tool on my kayak! No regrets at all! Worth every penny.
My only suggestion.. For the price, the package could be better. Perhaps include a nice case for it sometime in the near future?
Other than that, Easy 5 stars!!!
Update!!! Day 2 with the Boga and caught a 5.4lb lmb!

Others. I was hesitant to spend so much on holders when others were half price but after getting them and using them now I can see why. The craftsmanship is second to none and they close firmly on the fish.
