- This is a combination of methods that I have seen over the years. It is a variation of the “Costa Style” “How to clean a perch in 10 seconds” with some slight variations that I picked up from my In-Laws. This is one of the cleanest and easiest methods I’ve used. Comment below and let me know how you clean perch. If you have any videos fee free to share the link. I would love to see how others like to do it.

My son caught one and I had to clean my first fish , thanks to your great video instructions It was super easy . Thank you
He filleted it in such a weird way though
That's a pretty cool way of doin a fish. I've never seen it like that. But I like my boneless fillets.
Well, this is totally different of all other method I have seem. Very good. I like it. Thanks. Tony R
👍
Awesome!! And now I know how to clean Perch, THANKS Tree stand Man!!🥰
Anytime! 🎣
Thank you so much. I think you just saved me a lot of time here.
I hope my finger are up to the task.
Have a great day.
Some disposable latex gloves might save your fingers.
This method has been around a long time good you are showing it again
👍
Wow really cool, never seen it done this way. I'll be going for some perch, crappie and smallmouth tomorrow. If I get any nice ones or jumbo perch like that one I'll try this. I usually get some nice ones at this Reservoir.
Good luck!
Caught my first 4 Perch yesterday and i was so mad about those scales 😂 Smoked them now because of that, but thats a really good way to get the fillet
this method does work well and I use it often. A pair of gloves does help tremendously with holding the fish and pulling the fins though. Even one glove on one hand just for handling and pulling the fins helps and using the ungloved hand to separate the skin. The gloved hand really helps.
Great advice! I’ll give it a try next time.
Very nice.
We use an electric filet knife and a skinzit. Fast and bone free. Your method is pretty cool. No right or wrong way. Whatever you like.
👍
Costa style!!!
That was smooth
Well done. After you cut those ribs with the scissors, is there any bones left in the actual filets that need to be concerned of? or does cutting those ribs remove them all?
The only bones left are the spine and the thick part of the ribs. There are no tiny bones left by the time this process is completed, and the meat falls off the bones easily once cooked. Cheers!
todays lesson: new way to clean a fish. that is very cool, i usually
filet them. I'll give it a try and I'll let you know how it went. thanks for the tutorial.
Let me know how it goes! It falls off the bones and very little meat is wasted. Thanks for watching!
This is a very good way of cleaning perch so you get the maximum of meat off of it after you cook it all you have to do is just pull the rib out kind of looks like a centipede.
OUTSTANDING.
Thanks my boyfriend caught a bunch of small ones and he use a fork to scale. It got all the scales in my backyard on the ground. I asked him to remove the skin and he said he likes to fry it with the skin on. I don’t think I wanna try it
Ok wow, this was new for me
Oh, hey, this is grand! Can't wait to freak out the old dudes with this method...hee! hee! Thanks much.
👍👍👍
Good job of preparing perch like original video on how to clean perch in 10 seconds
Would you consider doing a cooking/eating video with those fish? I assume you do not eat those bones, and, I personally refuse to pick through cooked fish to remove them, so I fillet all of mine. I'd like to see how you handle them after they come out of the fryer please? i can always learn something new! Thanks in advance!!
I may consider doing that. The meat falls right off the bones when cooked. Trimming the ribs leaves thicker bones so it’s just the spine and ribs when picked clean.
Reminds me of The Sandlot "And he ate him, bones and all, and he liked it!"
😂
And just like that I’m now watching The Sandlot…lol. Thank you sir.
@@treestandmanoutdoors only the best movie of all time! Enjoy!
caught my first perch today 1.4kg(3lbs) thanks for the tip, hope it works.
That’s a giant, congratulations! What country was that caught?
@@treestandmanoutdoors Germany, we might have different species of perch
@tim8938 It looks like European Perch out there. Similar to a Yellow Perch only larger in size. Anything over 1lb is a good perch around here. Still, nice catch!
@@treestandmanoutdoors Thanks, your tutorial really made cleaning it easy.
Instead of grabbing the dorsal fin with your fingers, grab it between your thumb and the blade of your knife and pull. Zips right out.
Good tip, thanks!
Can I ask if the fish was chilled before starting to clean it?
Of course, they were chilled, but not frozen.
Check out Rogers’s Rig’s video on cleaning perch, that guy is like a race car driver with his filet knife lol
Roger’s fast. I’ve seen his video before. I’ll need some practice to keep up with him!
Seen an Eskimo dude use the same method..in my state u can only use the non edibile parts of a perch..seems the final product of what this guy throws away wud work as a fine lil bait for pike
That's my plan for those pike for sure. I usually hook a few perch first anyway, before the monster pike.
This fish has unbelievable skin.
Perch? I’ve never tried it.
@@treestandmanoutdoors even bistoury can't cut well. So interesting skin.
Will this work with walleye too?
I think it would work on smaller walleye, but honestly I’ve never tried it. I’ll give it a try this year and let you know!
what kind of scissors are those?
The brand is Wiss. They are great!
What method do you use to kill the fish?
Perch generally freeze quickly when placed outside on the ice.
I do them like that if I'm smoking them new sub here 888
When you cut the rib bones with the scissors are you leaving some rib bones behind? It sounded like you're cutting through bones. Is this a boneless fillet you're making
It doesn’t make it boneless, but it takes out a lot of the fine bones in the lower portions of the ribs. Easy to pick the meat off the bones once cooked.
Omg the perch eggs are the best part
I’ve never been much for caviar 😉. If I did get brave, how do you prepare/cook the eggs?
@@treestandmanoutdoors deep fry just like the meat only twice as long
@@hootervillehoneybees8664 I’ll try it this year, why not?
Perch eggs cause alot arguing in my house. Normally person whos Cook try to sneak few. Just roll your breading and deep fry twice as long as the meat .. want them cooked thru nice brown crisp coating
Is perch skin good to eat?
Not particularly…it’s pretty rough. I’m sure if it was de-scaled it may be edible, but I have always done skinless.
Might be quick but lots of bones left. Also if you think that first one was big you've never caught an adult ;)
I would filet three fish by time you cleaned one . I don’t like bones .
👍
What about the rib bones
The meat falls off the bone once cooked.
thanks for the video, will be trying this method tomorrow! catching alot of perch! Never seen this done before! Looks easier to get all the meat.
Good luck!
More detail I reference in 2008 UA-cam video “ how to clean a perch in 10 seconds “
1st thing you save are the eggs. & use a smaller knife.
Thanks for the tip. I’ve never tried the eggs, how do you cook them?
@@treestandmanoutdoors most people batter them up just like fillets and fry them
Thanks but I much prefer to keep the skin on. More flavour.
Bazaar.... Easier to just fillet them regularly. Yours still has a bunch of bones in it.

10 años cortando perch 350 libras en 6 horas
Who is the best
I’ve watched about 10 videos on this subject and this is the weirdest filet I’ve ever seen
DUDE …… if that blade gets even a bit dull and SLIPS ……. Not worth an ED Trip to Your local Hospital 🏥 !!!!!!
Definitely a different take on cleaning Perch
✨🎣💫
I’ve been told I should use a shorter knife for cleaning perch to have more control. I always try to keep my knives very sharp. Hopefully I don’t have any trips to the hospital this year after cleaning a fish. 🎣
I fucked this up so bad 😭😭😭
Sorry but I would never ruin a good perch like this. Perch should be scaled and butterflied period. Is it more work? Sure, but once you've done enough it can be done very quickly and efficiently. Not to mention..... YUMMY!
✅
Wow! I’ll bet you’re a lot of fun to be around. It’s your way or the highway, huh.
Personally, don’t understand why I wouldn’t filet them and remove the skin, though a friend told me he likes fish skin too. Inconceivable!
Why trim, just wash, dry & fry
Filllet quicker brah
So thats the Mehod huh? Lol
You still got all the bones and rib bones
The meat falls off the bone when you cook it. I find I waste less meat using this method than filleting them.
@@treestandmanoutdoors how is that gonna work when you fry it tho
@@johnnylinfield3809 just use a fork to pick the meat off the bones. It pretty much falls off the bone. May lose a little breading on one side, but still delicious.
Is this a taxidermy video? Wtf
my fingers would be shot
WTF
This is not quick and easy now you you bones to deal with
The meat pretty much falls off the bones when it’s cooked.
I'll clean 4 to your 1.. worst method I've ever seen..
Yea, I’ll agree that I’m not going to win any speed competitions, the point is that you’re not getting fish guts all over your freshly cleaned meat. There’s definitely more than one way to skin a perch. I’d love to see your method if you have a video you can link.
20 seconds each? Yes, please upload a link so we can learn your methods!
There's always one guy I tell ya
Show us your method b!tch I mean Mitch
20 seconds per is not unheard of, in fact the way I do mine might meet those standards, no, I don’t have a video to upload.
I think the OP’s method is fine, just not what I’m used to, I prefer skinless fillets, definitely don’t get as much meat as his method, but to each his own.
That is the wrong way to clean fish ! ! ! And spine an ribs are in there ! ! !
The meat falls right off the bone when you cook em!
I'll pass, I prefer BONELESS fillets.
Not good technique. Very long and very dangerous.
No comment.
