    I use electric and have for years but I do keep a back up "old school" blade in the box for when I don't have electricity or just have one or two fish and want to clean them at the water.

    Been using a 12V Rapala (or berkley cant remember) for a little while. It is a cheapo and have often realized halfway through filleting that Im doing just as much work with it that I would with a regular knife. I thnk its just habitual motion but if you really learn to make the knife do the work they can be helpful. I especially believe that would be the case with a higher quality knife. What are these Bubba blades yall speak of? Ill have to check those out.

    I Have to do it by hand. Haven't broke down and got an electric yet. I have watched the Bubba Blade video and while they do cost more than the cheaper electrics it is my belief that they are well worth the price.
