  • isnt it true you should blle the fish out right when you catch it so you dont have bloody meat

    simply cutting the throat

  • The only fish that I know of that bleeding out or removing the heart would help save meat from breaking of blood cells would be TUNA. The faster you can bring any fish to the boat the better for the meat! The adrenalin is what creates the broken blood cells aka "the red un-eatable meat I am removing," tight, fast lines Brad!

  • thats not a striper its a striped bass white bass hybrid, you can tell cause the stripe is broken up. nice fish though

  • Not all Striper's have perfect stripes! There are three ways to tell the difference between Striped and Hybrid Bass. 1) The shape of where the head meets the body is arched. 2)The back of the tongue has two tooth patches "holes" in a Striper and one in a Hybrid. 3) There are three spines and 11 soft rays on the anal fin, with the longest of these spines less than half the height of the anal fin.

    There is way to much cross breeding to count on just the broken lateral lines.

  • did you really eat that out of Harwell?!?!? ICK!

  • 8.5 out of 10

  • I must repeat what the last poster said.......I stop following after the butchering of the fillets started....wasteful.

  • I was following you up to the part where you start butchering the fillets....so wasteful

  • @jaceyin

    I dare you to eat dark meat off Bluefish. No one can bare that!

  • 8lbs start out and finish with less than a lb...

  • You shouldnt just saw through the meat. If the blade is nice and sharp it should do all the work for you.

  • i just cleaned 30 stripers about a month ago.. it was really hard to not puncture the belly. nice work

  • Delete this video, you really embarrassed yourself with that amateur fillet job. What a bloody mess unfit for a dog. Probably wouldn't feed a dog either, you got no meat left after that hack job.
