    My husband came home from a day of fishing w 3 good sized flounder. It was hot & he was tired so he asked me to take them to a fish market to get them cleaned. As I had NO idea about that, I watched your technique, sharpened a fillet knife & filleted them. I went a little deep on my first try, but after that, it went good. I took LOTS longer than you, but at 73, I do everything slower! My only concern is I’ll become the filleter!!! Thanks for the great video!

    Nicely done!! I grew up in Huntington but now live on the west coast. Seeing a master fillet a fluke was good to see. I caught some nice ones on the southshore in 2013. Out here I target the King Salmon, halibut, spriped bass, and albacore. Did you know that someone transported 100 striped bass in a tank on a train from New Jersey and planted them in San Francisco Bay in the late 1800's during the gold rush? We are having one of the best bass seasons in decades. I miss the fluke fishing and little neck clams. Ed

      While Sean makes it look easy...it takes some practice and a VERY sharp knife. But with his method and practice, you can get some impressive results.
      I cut out the part where he spends 5 minutes sharpening the knife, in hindsight I wish I had left it in!

    Thats exactly how I filleted Fluke when I worked as a Mate back on Long Island. You had to be fast and efficient when cleaning up to a couple of hundred fish per trip. Only thing I would disagree on is those ribbons U cut off to use for bait are some of the most tender parts of the filet. I always tried to filet my fish and keep those as part of the filet. You only need the Skin to use as bait.
