Will my dad was a die hard bluegill fisherman and we fished for them when they were bedded up catching numbers running into the 100's in a day and sometimes catching 300 to 400 in one week. Back in the day he believed in processing them the old fashioned way so we hand scraped every one of them and were sometimes outside feeding the mosquitos our blood until after midnight cleaning these fish. My dad is gone now but I have a first cousin who still goes after them like we used to with his dad. He got smart and purchased one of these things..........

He told me they could process a large catch with this thing in minutes rather than hours with basically the majority of the work being the deheading and gutting. He said the fish are as clean as if they had been thoroughly hand scrapped in a matter of a few minutes. I plan to purchase one of these before I move back to Louisiana..............
