Could anyone recommend a scale that is:
Under 50$
Waterproof
Somewhat accurate?
Not a Tournament fisherman
The Berkley and Rapala models don’t last very long and are built cheaply. I’d like to have a boga but not in my budget. THANKS

I have a ReelSonar Digital Fish Scale.
Its $20 on Amazon and I've used it regularly for over a year with no issues. It is accurate to the nearest .04 and comes with a pretty good spring loaded lip gripper or you can use the standard metal hook.

The gray rapala scale with the screen is hard to beat

Not sure any of them are "waterproof" as you ask but Cull-m-Rite is about as good as they get but outside of your budget. The new Rapala high contrast is a good one.

I you fish tourneys the berkeley one is awesome you can weigh a fish, tap the hold button and it stores that weight in spot 1,2,3,4,5 when you weigh number 6 it flashes which tag to use and CULL.. Its very accurate.
It actually stores them with b g o r w p color coded but I just count them as I havent even noticed if my colors on my tags match.
I did remove the hook and put a gripper on it.. the only gripe I have is it is slow to power up.
New they are $35 WATER RESISTANT... I leave mine by my seat its been thru many rain storms, no issues.
