    Default Auto. Fish Scaler?????


    Anyone out there use this? They had something kinda similar at Cabelas in St.louis that was around $50 that was a drum in a 5 gallon bucket that you attached a drill to. If that worked I might pick it up.

    I have had scaled crappie a couple of times and really like it, but I just don't have the time or the want to scale fish manually when I catch a mess of them.

    Never seen anything like that did see something that you pulled behind the back of your boat at slow speed.
