I bought a cheap one on Amazon and no way is it the quality of a commercial chamber vacuum.
I did notice the price drop from a $1000 +
to under $500 probably a different model. I paid to have my fish processed. If you can find a guy that actually worked cutting fish and ask him what they use that would be the way to go before spending a good chunk of money.
But they are getting so expensive I might quit fishing that way. I think with all the costs of my fishing trip my fish worked out to around $25 a pound.
The food savers types are Ok if your going to eat it asap
All I know about chamber vacuum is they have an oil pump with a chamber and you put the bag of fish inside and the bag are different pre-cut.
I used to can my fish but since getting it processed I seldom do unless I catch a small amount of fish.
The prices that I have seen go from around $360 to over $1000 + i can tell you this yellow tuna makes great cat.food
