QUESTION

Do you use the old way of filleting your catfish,, you know, skin it first and fillet it with a regular knife or do you use an electric knife? I had always skinned mine first and that why I never keep many fish..I'm to dang tired after fishing all day or night to do it any more..Now, ole Grumpy showed me the tricks of using an electric knife. I will NEVER do it the old way again.. Doug showed me how last year but I never tried it untill Grumpy got me into it the other day.

Yep, I showed him how I did it one time and I didn't have to clean any more fish. O'l John did the rest of them because it was so much fun.

I Have Never Used A Electric Fillet Knife Before But This Has Got Me Thinking That I Had Better Give This A Try, If It Makes It Easier And Quicker Im All For It Heck Maybe I Can Get My Kid To Clean More Fish This Way.

Mike,,you can clean a catfish 10 times faster with an electric knife. I went to Wally World and got a Black & Decker for under $10. Its a dang fine knife to.

Electric is the onlly way to go. On eater size especially, you can zip them out in no time. On bigger ones, sometimes I still skin them first and do them with a regular knife, but mostly use the electric. Kinda hard on blades going through them ribs, but worth it. I can't hardly do it by hand anymore. Used to be if I just had a few, I didn't think it was worth getting out the electric knife, but I do now.

I still use the old elbow muscle, but for 10 bucks, I might give the electric a try"

John,I got mine at wal-mart and had to pay $34.97, How did you get one for 10 Bucks????????? were they just trying to get you out of the store??????????

My Wife gets them for me at the Good will or Salvation army stores for 4 or 5 dollars and if you use a flat sharpening stick you can keep an edge on them easy

Nope.LOL, i'm so tall they don't see my wife standing there. They just think some tall pervert is casing out the panty and bra section.

maybe I'll get ridge an electric, he does our cleaning, who knows I might be able to do one or two with an electric.

I tried an electric knife once and didn't care for it too much. Still prefer the old Rapala Fillete knives. I can do a Catfish in under one minute, including removing the skin off of the fillet.

I prefer old way of filleting the catfish, love to clean them but the electric knife is not for me...
