New knife. Different hooch
American angler moved their production to china. They used to be great and had one for many years but when it crapped out couple years ago saw the reviews on how poor they were now so tried Rapala and they were awful and died quickly so returned them. Then finally got a Mr Twister which was very inexpensive compared to name brands but works very good and have cleaned hundreds of crappie with it and really like it.

I'm real particular about my bourbon too. back in college it was usually Rebel Yell for $2 a quart or whatever was cheapest in the bargain barrel.
