  • i fillet my salmon like tuna. A buddie of mine that used to work at a sushi resturaunt said there is another way how you filet the bone off the fish i think he's talking about your way. Great job..

  • Do you have a video of you filleting tuna.?? Or anyone for that matter. I sure would be interested in seeing that since tuna grow pretty big, don't they??? Or are we talking 20 pounds or so.

  • Seems i have a lot more to learn. Thanks for sharing your skills and the great vid. Happy filleting.

  • Everyone I am overwhelmed with your praise. In retrospect, I should have mentioned that it is also important to bleed the fish right after catching, otherwise the blood in the fish turns white when the fish is being cooked. This could leave the fish with a less than desirable taste.

  • I smoke alot of salmon and this by far looks like the best way to fillet large (or any) salmon!! Thank you so much for sharing your technique with everyone!

    When I have to do 200lbs+ I will definitely appreciate you, again thanks

  • Those are kind words indeed! Would you mind sharing your smoking technique?

    Regards,

  • Best, best filleting ever. Your skill is sharp as your knife. Leaving the connection without taking guts out is just simply brilliant. Good job.

  • That is the coolest way to filet salmon I have seen. Nice job and I will be learning it. The way I was doing it doesn't waste any fish either but I gutted the fish first and it takes much longer. Thanks for the video
