I have boga grips for saltwater but they start at 30 lbs they have them for smaller weights?

yep Cool
Boga grip 15 model.
A little pricey,But don't need to question it's accuracy.
I used the rapala digital versions and i check with a certified weight every so often.

This is the scale I have. When calibrated it is dead on.
They can be IFGA certified as well.

digital is fine too. They just tend to be less accurate the older and/ormore abuse they get. I owned 2 berkley digital scales. If you left it out on the deck of your boat in the sun on a hot day it would stop working until you put it away and it cooled down.

I agree with the boga gripe. You don't get a pretty two decimal number, but you get a very accurate scale that is durable. I dont like anything you need to put near the gill plates, the boga is right on the lips. Makes handling slim rockets easier too.
