The very best Sunfish scaler I've found is a simple tablespoon. Scale your fish under water and you don't have scales flying everywhere. BTW, that gut hook on your knife is specifically made to open the fish without destroying the guts. And those eggs are delicious cleaned breaded and fried. Just an FYI.
Good job out there! And it definitely doesn't get much better than that! Freshly caught and cooked! They looked delicious! Thanks for sharing this buddy! Keep gettin after em!
Finally! Someone who knows how to prepare sunfish! It's a real waste to fillet a panfish. Besides fillets of panfish is for little children and picky women. Men should be eating them like you prepared them. Only I usually dip mine in a little buttermilk and then into some seasoned cornmeal and flour mixture. And let the breading set up on the fish before putting in the grease.
I'm a daiwa guy so any spinning reel 2500 series or under will suffice with bluegill. You don't wanna go anymore than a medium light spinning rod for panfish. I use a 7ft medium light crappie rod by Mafia Rods and it's paired up with a Daiwa Revros 2500 series reel and it works wonders for me along with being budget friendly while not having cheap equipment
@@tattooed_angler Thank you for taking your time to respond. I was thinking between a 7 foot medium light or medium heavy. Thanks for suggesting the reel as well because there’s hundreds out there to choose from.
That diawa reel is the best in the biz. Very versatile reel and very smooth. Price point is awesome as well.
Oh yeah I've had that reel for three years and fish at least 3 times a week and it still works as good as when I bought it 🙌🐟

Yeah I didn't have a spoon on me sadly but I made due with what I had. I heard the eggs are good. I need to get around to trying them 🐟🐟🐟

By chance would you have any recommendations for a rod and reel combo?
