[Landofwrath]

great video... I kept doing the V cuts on the head and then using pliars to peel the skin.... your way is much faster.

This is a bit quicker than a conventional filet knife, but I've got a pic of about a 2 pounder that I did with it, and you can see daylight through the carcass, from cutting it so close to the bone. It looks like a lot of meat was left behind just using a straight cut alone the middle spine.

from your name I am betting you are from Arkansas, as am I. What part are you from?

[ARKIEPRINCE]

I live on Lake Conway near Conway, Ar

[ccsniper]

cool, I am from the fort smith area

[jonnytheninja2]

damn! you say hes 4 lbs and looks about 8-10 lbs!!

[ARKIEPRINCE]

I have digital scales and I weigh each fish I catch. I now use a bucket and re-zero scales so the bucket is 'tared out' e.g bucket is 0.00 when I add fish. Having scales that let you 'tare' (zero) the bucket makes it easy to weigh to nearest ounce without having to 'put a hole in the fishes mouth'

[sk8metalnick6]

looks like at least 8-10 pounds

[ahardy93955]

what brand is your knife?

[ARKIEPRINCE]

American Angler 110V Electric Fillet Knife - from Walmart BTW: I tried the 12volt model and don't see a lot of difference but since I have invertor and/or electricity where I clean - I use the 110v model

[ahardy93955]

thanks.

[xxxHERPERxxx]

Looks good, yum yum!

[ARKIEPRINCE]

Thanks for grill / baking method - I'll keep it - pass it along to friends that worry about greasy fried catfish (friends that like healthy cooking :)

I know greasy fried fish is not as healthy but this old redneck southern fart loves em fried :)

[bmxer34343]

y dont you fillett them alive i do it works out fine

[kronnyqq]

if you cut the tail off any bottom feeder fish, hang up up and let em bleed out the meat is a lot more tasty...used to do the same with carp

[samman401]

That sounds a bit cruel, don't you think?
