This humane and ethical method of killing fish also ensures your catch stays fresh and retains its best possible flavor.
Here’s how ikejime works and a review of the best kits you can use to perform an ikejime.
1. Xtrada Shinkeijime Long Ikejime Kit – Best Ikejime Kit
Whether you are a commercial fisherman or a recreational angler, the Xtrada Shinkeijime Kit is best ikejime kit you can get on market today.
2. Svord Kiwi Iki Spike
We particularly love this ikejime spike because of its easy-to-grip handle – most ice picks are usually rounded and harder to hold and maneuver when your hands are wet.
3. Xtrada Pocket Ikejime
It has an ergonomic handle, an easy-to-glide wire, and a spike that requires minimal effort to push through the fish’s brain.
4. Yoshihiro Spike
The t-shaped handle is still easy to grip. However, the spike’s thickness can be overkill if you catch smaller fish.
5. Svaitend Aluminum Alloy Ice Pick
It looks like a regular kitchen ice pick, but you’ll love its textured handle for extra grip. The only gripe we had with this product was the spike’s diameter.
