Need a good fish turner / spatula

Looking for a good quality fish spatula / turner for my grill. I encountered a little difficulty when grilling some closely positioned filets yesterday using my standard burger flipper. I want the long style, not the wide style. Preferably with a long handle for use with my XLBGE. Thanks!

This is what I have but don't remember where I got it. Works fine, could be thinner.

Thanks, that looks pretty good. My concern is what you say about thinness but if I don't find a better alternative, this may be the one.epcotisbest said:This is what I have but don't remember where I got it. Works fine, could be thinner.

Dexter is my go to for all my turners (I have 5 so far). I don't have this one as I don't care for fish. Not long handled though. I believe it is much cheaper at RD if you have one near you.

This stuff's supposed to be good. I don't own any so not a first hand recommendation, just what I've heard. Don't know how thick or flexible it is.

I hate it when I go to the kitchen for food and all I find are ingredients!

I like my rigid 8" wide fish turner and have even used it for other purposes such as moving dip pans etc with one hand vs. two.

FYI - Cooks Illustrated picked the Weber grill turner as their favorite. Don't have one but might check it out, my ancient Farber Ware is a bit short when reaching across the coals.

I've got this one and it's really good. I use it for fish, eggs, pancakes, etc. I do use it on my grill but I also make sure the fish is cut into manageable sized pieces before I put them on.
