I am sure somebody has covered this, but I could not find what I wanted by searching. right now I am trying to keep some sunfish and some crappies from a local pond. I am throwing back all the bigger crappies and pumpkin seeds, the last two trips I have kept a total of 9 fish the gills and seeds have to be over 7 for me to keep and the crappies have to be between 9-10 inches. as of right now I am just scaling them and chopping off their heads. it goes pretty quick with the small amount of fish I do catch. I have a 25 dollar gift certificate for cabelas that is just burning a hole in my pocket. my question is, would it be worth getting the electric filet knife for my panfish. (if it is quicker, I actually might start keeping bluegills that are a little over 6 inches, so i can keep more) I also do catch other fish like walleyes and pike, so the knife would get plenty of use. what are you opinions? do i just continue scaling the fish, or will the electric knife be worth it?
