“Never put your hand in front of the knife”. Proceeds to do just that. Haha. Great video and an amazingly good eating fish!
*@**2:22** I take a large metal soup spoon and in a single motion I scoop a long ribbon of meat from tail towards head.*
@@1nvisible14 We do also. It really gets all the meat. The scrapings are great for patties, chowder, dips....
I like this guy! I can truly sit down drink a beer with him and listen to his stories all day long! And eat the wonderful filet of fish that he produces!
Great job, simple efficient explanation, and demonstration. I hope this skill will never go out of style and will help preserve tradition. Thank you for sharing.
Thanks! We were given four salmon and I hadn't cleaned one in 30 years, so you really helped us out!
thanks for putting up such informative videos. i grew up in the Pacific northwest and would fish the runs with my great grand father until he passed. being so young i missed out on a lot of this information and i feel like i missed out on a bit of my culture not picking up on these skills. i now live in the midwest and sometimes pick up large salmon from a local fish house who has to fly them overnight from the PNW. your videos on the smoking cures and techniques have helped me achieve some of the flavors of home. i really appreciate what you do here.
Id love to have an ice cold beer with this guy. Great video sir.
Thank you sir this has been one of the most informative videos I've seen on this topic.
You're very experienced in what you do. Thank you for sharing your recipe.
Very nice preparation tips! I just spent 60000$ for a boat and equipment and now it’s time to go chase that 28 pounder!
I think you did great on this video. There are lots of great tips.
Thanks for making this
Great video. I now have myself a piece of old conveyor belt thanks to this video. Thanks for the informative tips
Thank you for being sooo clean. You filet that salmon with great ease.
there's something about watching really skillful people do their thing
Great he returns the precious leftovers to the river. Beautiful fish
Not great he could have done a very good soup with the leftovers
Or he could have made it into makeup. Yeah, it's an actual ingredient in makeup.
Fish scales, not fish bones.
yummy makan mentah2
bobbinbach jwa😧
Just amazing....watching you doing that fillets looks like it would be so easy ! Many thanks for share it
Its nice of you to share this with us, thank you! I think you would be very interested on learning the Ike jime technique from the japanese and also their way to clean and fillet the fish is very good :)
You sir are an artist!!!! What a beautiful fish and great skill with a great blade!!!
My favorite part here is the dog licking the salmon on the deck behind him! Haha
you've been doing that you whole life!!...it shows.... thanks
I love salmon. You really don't need to do a whole lot with it to get great flavor. Salmon sashimi, smoked or just baked with a fresh squeeze of lemon is amazing. In my opinion, there is no other fish that even comes close to be my favorite.
This gentleman does that work as it should be done ! Thanks sir , that work was done preety good
I dont know much about this stuff, but man that looked like masterful work! Thank you for sharing.
He always washed the fish- with clean water . I like it . Very clean.
I'm going to try doing these strips this season. I've always smoked steaks but I like your idea with the finished ends.
Thank you for showing how to cut a big salmon. That’s how I learned to fillet my salmon haha 😃🥰
i'm a meat cutter by trade and cut fish pretty well i think. That nice man knows what he's doing. Trust me. Nice work sir .
DirtRider WR250R I was just gonna say the same thing.
What kind of knife do you recommend? I'm generally cleaning salmon anywhere from 4 to 25 pounds. I have a nice dexter, though the knife he was using was making that thing look like butter. (And yup, sharp knife is rule one) .
I'm sorry but I cut salmon for 3 years professionally and in my opinion he was not good. He do know how to do it but he was far from good.
ua-cam.com/video/UYqPWfOOWzk/v-deo.html This guy is a lot better.
I do it a lot in my job to, that is not the good way.
The dog is just licking the fish ugh I love it 😂
TJ’a k you for making this video. You truly are an artist!
Very smooth and a very good way to use the whole fish nothing waste that’s important great job sir
lol the dog licking the fish in the background
OmertaCS he’s got the head- best part!!!
Why is this so satisfying to watch
LOVE the fact that you have your Electric work-sharp knife sharpener close by! I've got one as well great thing it is indeed, easy to make sure your knife is sharp, so hard at times to filet with dull blade. Got mad last summer on dull knife did some looking around and was a good deal. Oh nice Video as well lol.
Awesome work 👏 even the dog is helping pre clean one of the salmon. I’m cooking a filet portion soon.
Another life lesson learned!!Thank you
Really nice, good job. Clean and simple.
That was awesome thank you very much I fight a lot of fish in my time but I've never seen it done like that
Thank you sir, very educational and you explain things in easily understandable lay person's language.
Thank you..that helps ur a great teacher my friend
I live on B.C.coast and have fished for large Chinook\King salmon for many years. Like DirtRider whose comment below is germane to my experience, I cut fish pretty well. However, that
said, this gentleman showed me several twists of the knife of which I was unaware.
Thank goodness you don't have to be an old dog like me to learn an old trick. (There may be hope for some of you young dogs as well unless you know everything already)
Thanks for an excellent video.
nice use of all the meat good job
Best part is that he knows what his business is. Perfect fillet cut👌
it really wasn't, that was painful to watch, knew it was going to be a bad job when i saw how much meat he took with the dorsal fins
your a champ! Nice clean job you did, now I will have to check out how u smoke it!
All that filleting looks really good
Thank you for returning the waste to the river. One of the most important steps. Cheers
Wow, that was beautifully done. You cut down that fish in 2 minutes flat. Nicely done =D
Thank you for using the whole fish and thinking for the environment.
Joe Hanna finally the first person in consideration
Hardin Origins now, while I agree with you, was that really necessary? I mean, you have a right to say what you want, but do you have to? It's not bad to think about the environment, I just don't care.
Hardin Origins Well ok if you don't want to be happy you don't have to be
The funny thing is, He does not tell you you can make soup of the head. He also throws away the back bone, you can make soup/stock of that. Throwing it back to the river does really not make any sense because salmon don't feed from the river, they just reproduce there.
Moving on to the real part, man was that some nice handcrafting! God dayum that went fast and nice result as well! Looking dam good sir.
Hardin Origins You're sick of Environmentalism?
That's quite odd. Are you not a Creature that exists on a Planet which demands a sustainable environment to properly run its course? People who share immoral and unfounded ideals like you are what everyone should be tired of....
Slick spider kill. Didn’t go unnoticed
I do the exact same thing with the meat left on the bone after filleting the meat off the bone. I make a Salmon Chowder with it that everyone really likes. Especially good on cold rainy days for dinner.
Herb Good has been filleting fish for quite some time. i always return my leftovers to my crab pots!
awesome... you make it look so easy
Thank you keep all waters clean and share for all to enjoy tight lines and singing reels .
A man who dosen't waste fish is a pro and this man is a pro.
Very nice description and well done job sir.
WHAT I WOULD NOT GIVE FOR A WHOLE BUNCH OF SMOKED SALMON AT THIS VERY MOMENT! Thanks for making me incredibly hungry with your goddam video, lol!
Looks like my knife of choice Forschner 402-10 breaker, Great video thank you.
These types of videos make me SO HUNGRY!!! Why do I keep watching them!?! LOL
I am late to comment but very well done! Thank you for sharing this!
Thank you for the good lesson!
Well done sir! Man do you make that look easy.
Excellent video. The "Take Home" lesson for me was to clean the meat on the backbone for the smoker. I was pleasantly surprised how many shavings I got. The only thing I questioned was smoking the belly fat, which I generally throw away, because it is where the toxins concentrate. A fish that size is generally 2 to 3 years old.
love that you try to get all the meat you can!
Great video and some really impressive knife skills.
Finaly someone that can fillet without any spill :)
like a pro! thanks for the great content!
Thanks for fillet teaching Mr Salmon
Excellent video! My father likes to use the head of the salmon for soup! Makes for a tasty broth! ☮️🖖🏽
I was wondering how you curled your cuting board!? Haha. Finally saw it on the zoom-in...belting! Thanks, thats a great tip and I have access to miles of that stuff! Cheers
Let's face it. Not a single one of us are actually going to do this 😂
i live on van isle thats the way i do it
@@billoldfield2843 same here! I'm out in Sooke
So fresh looking fish!
Excellent job Sir!!!
Excellent work!!!
4:50 he kills a spider lol and continues lol 😂
Conveyor belt, I likey. Nice technique!
That’s pure gold!!!!
Duuuude you forgot about the cheek meat. It's so good
In my opinion he just smoke some top tier chef there. Amazing skill.
i love the fact that the dog is licking the fish in the background
Excellent work
This gentleman is good because now I'm starving. :)
well done sir. Making it look easy.
Nice job, enjoyed the video. Cheers
The guy knows what he is doing. And he cares about the planet. Good guy.
look at those slabs, those hunks of fish. wow!
You sir is a LEGEND!!! 😊😊😊
that dogs is having him a good ole time licking those fish XD
beautiful! I envy your life when i heard the birds sing
Simple and informative
Great materiał. Greatings from Poland mate!
Outstanding!
Fantastic video very interesting thanks
Dang, watching this at 11 pm and now all I can think about is some salmon, lol wait, I think I have some leftover salmon in the fridge, not nearly as good as fresh smoked salmon but it will have to do. Love those nice thick filets, yummmmmy. Salmon is my favorite fish for sure.
VERY well done sir!!
Thank you sir for this video.
this is the most satisfying video on UA-cam
Thank you sir... Great video
Great video it helped a lot
That is a beautiful fish.
I've never cut the fish lengthwise. Looks like a good idea
I work for a charter service in Seward AK. I have always found it to be easier to teach beginner with a fish head on so you have something to grab on to. you have some very nice fillets though, it is a big king and you didn't butcher it like most people who cut in a sawing motion. a better way to clean your fish flesh off is take the knife and slide it against the fish softly to take all the slime and gunk off. Spraying it with water cab ruin the flesh, because salmon meat is very delicate.
😋😋😋😋 looking good, looking good!!
