Jaw looks like a roll of quarters. Could very well be a DD.
Why don't you people buyyyyy scalesssssss.
This is a phenomenal non-tournament scale.
I'ma start a charity campaign for #ScalesForTheScaleless
Edit: I see that your scale just needed batteries. #SpareBatteriesForTheBatteryless
Off the top of my head, a good multitool like a Leatherman.
A scale with measuring tape. For making sure you are within a size limit or for bragging rights.
Bogagrip like grabber or Fish Gripper for handling fish.
Hemostat for extracting a deep hook.
A good hat, UV rated shirt, sunblock and mosquito/tick repellent. Maybe a backpack with water reservoir a la CamelBak. I also keep a small first aid kit and a hook removal kit just in case.
Dry bag if you are going to be on a boat or kayak. No one likes a water damaged phone.
Edit:
A folding net. Nothing is worse than having a good fish and losing because it too big to drag it up on the bank. I lost a good sized trout last week because I didn't have a net handy.
Thank you for your thoughts on your R2.
Mine weighs 24 pounds on my scale.

I figured you were being facetious about getting ripped because it is so heavy.
I replaced the bushings after my first ride. I had some Randal 180 trucks from another longboard already. I used the tall stepped cone 91a bushings and small flat washers from those. They fit perfectly.

It carves better and no wheel bite. The stock large cupped washers were limiting the turning. I like to keep the trucks on all of my boards on the loose side, with the front always looser.
I also wedged my front truck 7 degrees with a Khiro angled riser. I did this on all of my eboards and on many of my longboards. I like to carve and turn sharp when necessary.

I really like my R2. I only have about 30 miles on it so far. I hope it proves to be reliable.
How many miles on yours?
How did you fall?
Dr. Meter Scale from Amazon
Fish Grip Jr.
I got this one, based on reviews and price. It worked alright for me in it's initial test run, and seemed pretty accurate, but I have not compared it side by side with anything else (link to live action shot).
Complaints are that you have to actually turn it off or else it just stays on in your bag like mine did, as well as a teeny little hook attached that would be good if you had a gripper but I do not.
As /u/NLJeroen some kind of spring scale, maybe this one.
As a hack, you can rig a pulley and a bucket, such that the weight of the bucket pulls the gate closed. Then, fill the bucket with water until the gate moves. Convert the volume of water to weight.
[$10 bucks, comes with measuring tape] (https://www.amazon.com/Dr-meter-Electronic-Measuring-Batteries-Included/dp/B00ZWNGZFO/ref=sr_1_4?s=hunting-fishing&ie=UTF8&qid=1494103744&sr=1-4&keywords=fish+scale)
Super light and portable too. I've had mine for a few years and it still works great.

This is the scale I got. Really cheap and works. It doesn’t have the latest hook if you’re just weighing under the gills. There’s definitely better options though.
