Fishing knife

[22-rimfire]

I have one of those Schrade filet knives...except has a walnut handle. Yes, it is wicked sharp.

When I still kept the fish I caught (a good fish is too good to catch only once) I carried a SMALL fixed blade (my own making. MUCH easier to clean than a SAK), as well as one of the more complete SAKs, now i carry a Buck Solitaire and a Leatherman Wave (blades on most Leathermans' aren't strong enough for my taste)

I carry a Gerber Multi-Plier for hook removal, tightening screws, etc.
A Schrade, usually a stockman pattern, is always in my pocket.
I have a Kershaw Two Can on my key ring which I use to cut line, it even works on braided line.
A fillet knife I made (back at the house for filleting).
In addition there is at least one knife in each tackle box. I will also carry any new knife I have that I want to field test.
So many options

4th down is the Steelhead from Schrade.
Real plastic stag and some sort of stainless, not steel snob level stuff.
But it works.
Filleted a bunch of Bluefish with that one.

Son I haven,t had bluefish since the last time I was in Jersey . DEEEEELICIOUS . Thanks for the info on the knife . I am glad its not uber expensive . I wonder if walmart sells that model . It sure looks like carbon steel to me .
