Overview

The Rapala RGSDS-50 is a gray fish scale from a brand long associated with fishing tools, weighing about half a pound and sold as a single unit.

Rapala built its name on lures before expanding into scales and other on-water gear, and this model fits that lineup as a lightweight, packable way to weigh a catch streamside rather than a countertop kitchen scale.

  • 0.51 lb weight
