BS!!! I WISH I could fillet as well as this guy can.

[MrRedskins0021]

He is waisting a lot of meat

[SOLIDSNAKEXXX360]

they dont just throw the rest in the garbage dumbasses, hes cleaning the fish for a certain cut, the rest probably goes into your beloved hot dogs

[DARKWITCHCHERYLE]

Beautifully done! Thank you for sharing!

[Chhhyaaaa]

I see waste waste waste and then scales lol lol

[lolozai91]

all i can see is waste o.o unless this is how westerner eat

[deanlhouston]

Listen at all these clowns claiming wasted meat!! You know, I used to take my time cutting out the ribs, and trying to save as much meat as possible... and you know what?? My filets ended up looking the SAME as these and he's doing it in under 20 seconds!!

Haha! Just a bunch of inner webz experts thinking they're better, but I don't see no video of THEM showing how to do it.

This guy rocks!! I am going to start trying his techniques!! Thanks for the upload bro!!

[burtcmcalpine]

yeah if you don't want to eat the fish and waste most of it that is fine. I prefer to actual use what I take. I was this guy in person wasted ~50% of each fish he touches. I saw the left over from speckled troit, red fish, and even red snapper. Just pitiful. he did ~120 trout and had about 1/3 of the meat from our ~120' trout, but he was faster...

If you say there is meat being wasted your a moron the meat gets tougher in the ribs and throat once they get 10-20lbs and impossible to cut one they get 21-30lbs or so and once they get big all they are good for is mounting and showing off

[TheAndreMira]

@jman06142 are you serious? the rib meat and throut meat are the muscles the fish never uses. Its the softest part of the fish. Theyre difficult to remove because of the way theyre attached and no other reason.

[MyBallsUrJaws]

does*

[MyBallsUrJaws]

is that belly meat not taste good or...

[jh9653]

he's throwing a lot of meat away



[bigone6884]

Also the guy that said he can do this with an electic knife. Get your hands on a 30 pound red and video yourself cleaning it then post it on here. Intrested to see how fast you burn it up.lol

[bigone6884]

Some people slice the belly and cut out the ribs attached to the fillet. All hes doing here is cutting around the rib so there is one less step after the removel of the fillet. I worked along side the guy for several years when i was a teenager hes an animal and the nicest guy you will ever meet. Come down to cocodrie louisisana, and check it out in person its awesome to watch.

[bigone6884]

There is little meat wasted here between the ribs and the belly scales, but on reds this size there is a think blood layer that isnt really good eats, so if you wanna be nit picky and down play this mans skill i challenge you to clean one in under 5 minutes. Red fish is more of a sport fish very easy to catch no avid fisherman should ever have a short age of redfish meat.

[swolldier89]

He flings the scales so hard they get stuck in the wall.

[lws1547]

How many fingers has he lost?

[CopperheadStudiosInc]

Thanks for posting!!

[CopperheadStudiosInc]

Actually, I know this guy, his name is Mark Trahan and he is the inventor of The Proscaler... He's a great guy, his invention is awesome, and as far as the whatever small amount that may have been able to salvage... His brother crabs, so really, nothing that goes by Mark is ever really wasted... I have a couple videos of Mark and his Proscaler on my Copperhead Studios, Inc page :) salt of the earth kinda guy ...

[bpr2772]

Unbelievable!

[swamperk]

what is the name of the knife and how long is it,like to buy a knife like that,,looks like it stays sharp

[kewlkat91]

@swamperk  the knife looks like a dexter-russel. appears to be the 8" boning blade.

[TheJBlood92]

There isn't anything being wasted there that is worth eating. ESP on a fish that size. And no regular electric knife is going to do that. end of story.

[mylsuhat]

waste? there is not other meat on a redfish worth messing with than what he already got

[ibwhodaman]

If you are worried about da rib meat and throats go catch a couple exta reds and make up for it

[djquebedeaux]

Use an electric knife and it's just as fast but less waste and in about 4 more seconds the skin and scales would b trash too

[txjack1959]

reckon he dont get paid by the hour ! lol

[harv418]

Way too much waste.. There is good meat between the Ribs and the Shells, and the Throats are fantastic meat.

[callsignsleepy]

There's a lot of meat being wasted there.
