Maybe you know someone who prefers their panfish with the skins on, scaled of course. My preference is that as long as its cooked right, I just don’t care one way or another. Those who do preferred their fish scaled are adamantabout it. I did the google thing on fish scalers and came up with quite a few styles, both electric and handheld models.
I am just going to take a look at the electric scalers available on the market, some start out about 100 bucks, while others can cost over thousands. First off are the wand type electric scalers

I found one website that had a little of everything as far as price ranges. This Bear Paw model is about as much as I would spend, but only because I am virtually indifferent to any preference in this.
Other higher priced models, and grant you, they look very well built, are also available.
