New Ardent Culling System Now In Stock at Fishing World

Product Description

The Ardent SmartCull Professional Culling System is a first-of-its-kind, two-stage system that allows you to cull by color and weight. A series of six highly buoyant, impact-resistant balls eliminates the need for markers, charts or computers. The easy-to-read numbers record up to 15 pounds, 15 ounces, and setting weight on each ball is quick and simple. No more reweighing, extra handling or extra stress on fish. Thanks to SmartCull, it’s never been easier to make sure you’re keeping the best, and getting rid of the rest.

Great XMAS Gift:clap

Saw those in FLW's magazine...a great idea ! One improvement might be to add plastic pinch style clips like Berkley uses instead of using stringer style metal clips that are supplied. I'll definetely be trying these next year.

So , essentially, the ball itself is the scale unit? Hmmmmm:? I wonder how accurate one ball will be compared to the next ball? That would explain the old style locking metal hooks.:(

It looks like the balls are just a dial

That is a very cool idea!

I have used Ardent reels this year and they have held up very well and cast a mile. I used 2 Ardent 1000XS for musky jigging on a St. Croix legend musky rod and they are tough to say the least.
In other good news, Ardent reels are made in the USA.

I believe the balls are just dials (like mentioned above) and you would still require a scale so you can dial the right weight on each ball as you put the fish in the live well. It's a great idea.

Kind of like a baseball or golf score counter...

Awesome looking units and yes you still have to weigh the fish but no need for markers and boards that go missing or get wet and smear. I will be trying these out this weeknd on Erie in the Frostys Events. Can't wait. Anything that makes the bitter sweetness of culling faster and easier is awesome!
:clapPete

I agree....no more wet marker boards that smudge!!!!

Great system!!!!

I've had a set for 2 weeks now, really looking forward to using them next year, like Craig said-no more smudging or in my case loosing markers!

We have them on sale for $39.99 CDN.

do they have one in 100's of a pound? There's going to be a lot of fingers and toes in use to convert over to ounces....;)?LOL I know Craig will have to bring a calculator.....

Easy now................

From what I can see from these new culling balls they look like the real deal. We are having an introductory sale price of $39.99 as of now which is comparrable to our U.S retailers. drop by the store and take a look

They made my Christmas list! Hopefully, there are some people viewing this page that won't mind putting them under my Christmas Tree;)

Uesd them all weeknd on Erie. Even in very minus temps they performed flawlessly. How did I ever get along without them......:clap

I'll say you used em Pete WTG!:clap

Back to back on Erie for Pete and Cesare this week-end............

Ya I'd say you guys used them!!!!

Shawn,
The ball is not the scale, it is a weight recorder. This eliminates the need for a white board and marker.

Ya, I see now:* They look very............ nice and simple.:clap

It was a fun weekend...but I actually didn't use them that much. My partner did though. Cesare drew the short (frozen)straw and did all the culling.lol:P
Thank goodness for the dial as I don't think he woulda been able to get his hands to write after dipping them in the livewell over and over and over again.lol
