  • The creme de la creme of redfish and sheepshead filet knives



    If you're looking for something just to clean these fish, and price is not a worry, check out the above link from my hometown rag.

    Lol, awesome Coach! That would put a man's wrist in shape if he caught a good mess.

      I gave up on electric knives years ago, but this one looks like it might work. That said, I'm not paying that much for it. I'll keep fileting the old way, like most everything else.

        $175 aint that bad when ya think about how many Mister twister and others I've burned up over the last 30+ years; but I don't catch that many reds or sheeps and I key on trout. Thanks for the link Sandy.

By the way, what's so significant about 9/11 anyway-was that a date my buddy Bill Ayers of the Weather Underground blew up a government building?" asked Obama to Hillary.

          The saw is at Home Depot for $80 ($50 on Ebay, no don't get started Sandy) and the blade at Academy for $25.
          With a grinder and a drill press, it shouldn't be too difficult to modify the tang to fit the saw.
          I'll sell ya one for $130...

              I made a cordless sawzall redfish knife like this two years ago after seeing one on a trip to Lake Calcasieu. You don't have even have to modify the blade. The hole in the electric knife blade fits the sawzall just fine, it does move a little but not like you think. The aggravation of modifying one of these blades to look like a sawzall blade is not worth it. If you clean right handed you use the single left blade & if you clean left handed you use the single right blade. Been using the same blade for 2 years and I did learn the 9" blade works better than 7" blade, it has more flex. $175 us way overpriced. $49.99 for Power Stroke sawzall at Home Depot (sometimes cheaper) or if you want a Rigid it's $79.99 corded $129.99 cordless. $9.99 for 9" mister twister blades at Academy. You can breeze thru redfish lke no other. Cleaned 15 redfish & 4 black drum superbowl weekend in minutes. Those fisherman in Louisiana are some sharp dudes.

                Cool Bryon!
                Taking it even a step further, Harbor Freight has a corded - one hand saw for $33. The whole thing might be done for less than $50.
