This is a good one for sure. If your looking at electric, ive had a lot of em, but the Rapala HD is about the best I’ve found. We flllet 60,90, and 120 crappie at one time a lot of times. And this is about the only one I can do 100 with without having to get another cause the motor is hot.

Good to know. i need a good electric too. I use several depending on size and everyone needs both manual and electric. No matter what I always use a cheap throw away pair of gloves to handle the fish. Much easier.


Gloves are a big help for sure. I use to use them Walmart brand electric knives. They was $15 I think. About every 30 fish or so I would just swap out with another one. But we do 1500 plus crappie a year and they just wouldn’t hold up. The HD I have now has done over 5000 fish since I’ve had it and still going strong. Well worth the $50ish it costed. Plus blades are like $10 a set and last a while also

A friend, the Bible and a banker will get you though about anything.
