Fishhunter Guide Service of Louisiana is the father/son duo of Nash Roberts III & IV. Both are degreed biologists and full time fishing and hunting guides. In the 11 or 12 fishing charters I've enjoyed with them since 1995, every one was like an ESPN TV show, more often than not hitting angler limits on Redfish (5) and Spec Trout (25). This is a video of Nash Roberts IV demonstrating the proper filleting of a big Louisiana Redfish (1 of 30; see trout filleting too). I highly recommend the Roberts. They fish out of Port Sulphur, Louisiana about 50 minutes southeast of New Orleans. http://www.fishunterguideservice.com

I hurts to watch people take the whole fillet off by running down the top of the spine like that. your fillets will be 1/4" thicker if you take the time to cut above and below the spine instead of being impatient and wasting meat. it's an injustice to that pretty fish. reds are a lot juicier if you leave the skin and scales on and grill them too.

turn your knife under the ribs and save more good meat.

Great Demo. Two questions, what brand is the fillet knife and what size blade are you using??

you should use the ribs, head and bones of the fish as the base for a stew.. fish head and bone based stew is good.. lots of flavor
