Very nice video. I guess we sort of all have our way of doing things, but need to be always willing to learn from others, so the more we see, the better we can get. I prefer to individually throw the produced fillet into a bit of water immediately after the initial fillet is produced. I find that the blood, et al does not start drying on the fillet and it is easier to separate. Also noticed a common characteristic of so many perch, that is, the little grub worms in the meat. this wasn't mentioned, so I assume they were later removed, or just fried up. Video was well done, hope you din't mind my rambling on. Have a good day!

That electric Bubba knife comes in a battery version and a plug-in version I cannot find any reviews for either one do you have a recommendation considering you seem to be using at least one of them? I have a Rapala fillet knife that plugs in two 12-volt or through an adapter to my wall but it is not very powerful and I was considering a plug-in electric but with these new lithium-ion I'm wondering if that is the Smart Choice any help would be a excellent thank you

Removing the pin bones as you have done here is referred to as a J-cut fillet in the culinary industry, generally we cut out the belly meat as well. I usually just remove them individually with pin bone tweezers. Keeps the fillet larger and more uniform for cooking. I want to try an electric knife but I feel like I wouldn-t end up using it. I keep my Japanese steel insanely sharp but that is a product of being in high end kitchens for years.

I am not a fan of doing fish in this manner. The chest cavity of the fish contains the internal organs which you cut as you do this. The fecal material and undigested food stuffs are smeared all over your fillets and knives. I wouldnt want to gut a deer or game bird internally going through the major organs and I wont do a fish that way either

As with any fish or game, the first thing should be get the guts out! By cutting through the guts multiple times you risk contamination and tainting the meat. I realize it might be quicker your way but I'd rather not risk intestinal contamination especially in fish. --

Gotta get those pin bones out for sure. I went to a higher end restaurant and ordered perch and they left the pin bones in. No bigger turn off than eating bones in your filets.

Nice vid aside from the poop hangin' around. I suggest a strong fork with pointy tines to hold the meat while carving out the ribs and to hold the tail for filleting.
