i have the small rapala digital scales and they're quite accurate. every time i start to doubt them they check out fine against a known weight.

what grip did you use and how did you replace it?

I can't speak for the poster, but I just got the Rapala Floating Fish Gripper and am going to replace the hook with it by using a pair of pliers to open the circle at the top of the hook and removing it from there, then attaching the fish gripper.

Budget is I dunno $50 and below maybe. By the way thanks for all the replies I’m going to start shopping here in the next few days.
