Anybody have recommendations for a good quality hand held digital scale under $100? I've kept a $20 rapala scale in the boat for a couple years. I would like something more reliable.

I like my rapala scale its around 40$ and stores up to 7or 8 fish.
All touch screen and very accurate.

DO NOT LET THE RAPALAS GET WET!!!

I have bought two of them and the slightest bit of moisture and they are toast. Can't leave em in the boat. Can use em in the rain. POS if my opinion matters.

I had one fall in the live well....three days later it was toast. Bought a new one and used it during a rainy tourney. Quit before the day was up.
Both times it was the same thing. The screen gets moisture in them and then it quits. It technically still works....the screen lighting goes out. If you hold a flashlight to it in broad daylight you can almost make out the reading. Threw it in the trash at the ramp.
I guess I'm unlucky.
