what would bring in more margin than a $150 fish cleaning device?

A $150 Fishing Rod, any kind of clothing, anything in the optics section, any of those high end coolers (Yeti/Artic).....I bet the number of items/SKU's in Scheel's with more margin compared against an overpriced fish skinning device would be a long list.

Yup next thing you know there is money missing off the dresser and your daughters knocked up.

Crazy the commission those guys make. Seems like a waste of money for scheels but it seems to work for them.

What if OP knew he 100% wanted a skinzit. He told his wife that. His wife goes there knowing exactly what she wants and salesman talks her into something else. OP opens Christmas gift and it’s not what he wanted. Next thing u know he’s yelling at wife in front of kids. Soon enough he’s going through the big D.

Thanks a lot salesman.

That might not have stopped this crazy, greedy salesman obviously.

If you grill your Ribeyes on a Foreman, than you'd probably clean your walleyes with a skinzit.

My wife did spend more money on something else. Yes they were out of the Skinzit. Reason for me asking is I have a birthday coming up and these look like something I would use, but if they don't save me some time I see no reason to buy 1. That is the reason I asked on here for some opinions. The salesman only gave his personal opinion, and made some other suggestions. She was impressed with the salesman as he passed on a sure sale and walked her around showing her some other gifts. I just last year got back into ice fishing and bought an Eskimo portable ice house. This salesman suggested a flasher and other things. She bought me a FL-18 as she remembered me looking at one last spring. More money, but a decision she made. Happy salesman as he made a bigger sale.

I’ll take a skinzit, a buzz stick and a bucket of banjo minnows.

Don't for get your Color-C-lector.

You asked for a skinzit and she got you a Vexilar? Does she have a sister???

gotta agree with MSA Meh... get yourself a electric knife and learn how to use it well.... you can fillet a bucket of perch/ panfish in no time complete with boning the rib cage out.

My ears are perked up, but I'm not sure why? What'd I miss? This comment smells like a funny story.

Don't leave home without your pocket fisherman

 

[AR-15]

Did you ever try one of these

 

[guywhofishes]

all I can think of when I see these things is "why?"

 

[Captain Ahab]

I actually need a Popiel’s Pocket Fisherman.

 

[roosterfish]

The BANJO MINNOW was a smallie and gill killer!!! nephew had to reorder 2nd kit!!! believe it or not that one worked. His pocket fisherman not so much.!!!!

 

[AR-15]

I still have a pocket fisherman new in the box, but no it isn't for sale, remember when we were kids we would tie the pocket fisherman to our dirt bikes and go fishing, we thought they were the cats meow

 

[Captain Ahab]

I’m not sure about you guys, but I’d like to rip baits with the pocket fisherman standing next to Alex Langer.
