You do have a way with a fillet knife, no matter the species they always look delicious .
Just wondering, is there a reason why you decapitate them before filleting? Also, have you ever "zippered" eyes? for the lateral line of bones.
I dont usually gut them 1st. However when we moved around the lake it was easier to gut them and put them in the cooler-

My guttting style is to slice from anus to pec fins. Then cut behind the head thru the backbone down almost to the same pec fins. Grab head and pull and everything comes out.

It takes about 10 seconds to gut a fish.

yeh, same here. you got skills with the feeelay knife
I have to agree with others... I would love to see how you get your fish so clean. I am known for getting a lot of meat off the bones and getting big fillets, but my work is not as clean as yours and I would like to know why... Well done, dude...
Ill try to do a vid.

Had a customer show up with a prostetic hand and asked me if he could gut his own fish. He was the only guy all season that wanted to do it himself. What was impressive is this guy lost his hand only 6 months before. Check out the video below.

I'm no rookie! Still, the cleanliness of your fillets is admirable (gawd, I can't believe I am using that language to Slayer... sigh). My eye fillets are never that clean, always have some blood staining.
Have anyone ever made fish stock from the bones?
