Why on earth are you cutting off the tastiest meat on the fish, the belly fat. Sorry guy, but you waste a lot of edible fish for the sake of expediency.
Forrest Trim Possibly there may be mercury, though in the UK it is highly unlikely, so all that you cut off I would cook to end up with less shrivelled steaks and that can then be removed afterwards. I have to say that I would never catch fish where there is any kind of factory upstream, what we call out trout streams have no industry discharging anything into these streams.
mrbluenun removal of the belly meat wont take care of the murcury content, but it will greatly reduce the other contaminants present in the fish's environment that are in the fish.
agreed. also after they are knocked out some larger fish you may want to bleed. like i bleed my catfish by cutting the tail off. or some fish you can slice the gills. itll make the meat taste cleaner and less of a mess when your cleaning them
Risto Kosonen from Finland is 7x champion in filleting trouts, salmon, pikes , pearch.....etc. Look at his way of handling trout with minimum waste and very quickly. Risto past away a few years ago, but you can look from youtube, how a real pro works.
Danila Romanov because i think a lot of people haven't had an asian influence in their lives. i learned this while living in Hawaii and spearfishing there that some of the best flavor is in the head of the fish. aloha =)
Lol I was wondering the same thing! I always had it growing up and seeing this video made me wonder if my family does it wrong but now I just think white people think its gross haha
what about the y bones? i didn't think trout had y bones until i caught a few through the ice and took them home to fillet them. I ran into y bones and i didn't want to waste meat so i left them in...
why did he cut the gills out separately, gut under the chin and open the stomach up and bull, it removes the gills, guts, and front fins all together, then you still have belly fat and its quick
Should of had a fish bucket to wash it off because there are big ass mysterious fish out there that will jump up and grab your fish right out of your hands. Trust me I know.
Thats a strange way to take out the gills(spelled?) Simply cut it all the way from the back all the way to the chin, put 2 fingers around the gills and pull, all the guts and gills come straight out, in one piece!!
Not just this video, but I think it is an assumption the fish is large enough that it doesn’t matter, and wherever American catch fish I find them utterly wasteful with often times some pretty odd ‘Old Wives Tales’ which for the most part, and assuming the local infrastructure of whatever Companies may get rid of poisons, left to do so with again an assumption this land is ours and its big so the likelihood of any poisons is hardly worth a care. Mmm, I wonder this chaps Tale about the poison accumulating in this or that place, must be founded in some truth, so make the answer is NOT to watch ANY fish below a certain point in the river or tributaries. Not exactly the perfect way to go about things, but if a company cannot do what the do with enough care NOT to flush and nasty shit into the river system, maybe its the local Councils problem for not or maybe even never enforcing these types of safety laws and health and other health and safety stuff. We in England or anywhere if found dumping poison would be jumped on from a great height so it doesn’t happen in areas where any of it has a chance of ending up in some of the food chain. Remember it is not just liquid metal which is dangerous, there is and should be laws with detailed instructions about any possible ‘run-off’ from animal slurry. I have seen cases in the Stares where the Dollar was seen as infinitely more important that what was said to be the efficient running go cows as in beef raising. Those people went to prison, but not before damaging a couple of huge rivers and thousands of tributaries. Its been done before and was not thought anything at all important, so the studies of what happened and how long it took to get most if not all the water ways to good health, so fish and everything one would expect to bread in rivers and lakes to feed the fish in their own sanctuary, it was a long time maybe 20 years before it would be clean. However this time, and with the local council STUNG by just about everyone for not enforcing laws to prevent this, they did the arse licking and rope jumping and those obviously guilty were hit very hard. Most of my family are American and it was a letter and then emails which got me interested in this type go health and safety matter. It is still the case that there is restrictions of imported food "Because we can’t say how the animals were brought up and or slaughtered." Fair enough. But it is no good putting laws in place for foreign produce and fish and any other food item, if it is done with the total ignorance of what if happening on your own door step!
People should not be allowed to take fish if they only eat half ....waste. The head is the tastiest part with the kidneys and heart ...offal is good smoked... and use rest for stock..yum
AncientAmature Regarding the belly fat, we Americans have screwed up our natural resources to the point where the fat of many fish in no longer edible because that's where the toxins and heavy metals that we dumped in the water accumulate.
after seeing some of the other videos, I got kind of sad when he instead, put these fillets in the bin....well atleast there's a LOT of fish. I won't throw meat away.
Do you ever throw the guts and scrap back into the water for the other fish/turtles? It's something I've always done just to give back a little bit. Thanks for the video, I will be using these techniques soon... Hopefully!!
+Nizoq kr Just be careful doing so in your area. I know that here in NY, it is illegal to dispose of fish within 100' of any public water source. I don't know what the laws are wherever you are, but, just though I'd let you know.
Boil it in little water with the usual vegetables. Salt and pepper. Herbs. Leek, carrots, onion, celeriac..... First cook the veggies in butter, the leek and onion, without browning them use mild onion if preferred, échalotes, silver onion....
Why do you contaminate your fish when you make the cloacal to chin cut? You're cutting way too deeply and you can literally see in the video how you've ruptured the GI tract of the fish with resulting waste products spilling onto your meat.
Never ate trout. I live a jog fro the Cape Cod coast. I've ate perry wrinkles, muscles, oysters , bay clams and scallops RAW. I want to try trout. How's the taste? Anything saltwater I've tried but I here trout is great. I love salmon but it's extinct where I live but cod rules supreme
Look a video where a real champion works with very little waste. Risto Kosonen kalankäsittely.All northern fish and of course rainbow trout. Watch and learn. Regards from Finland.
When I fillet I don't slop the fillet back on a shitty, scummy, board just to lift the skin off. And I don't need to wash when done at all!, water helps start the decomposition of flesh when you introduce more moisture to the meat and may not be properly dried or reduced before storage. The same thing apply to venison.
Why did you do the trout like that there is an easier way to you cut half way up the stomach and maybe a quarter the look under it jaw there two hole but skin around it you put the in between the hole the just pull with your fingers then front fin is gone and the guts you won't have to grab with your hands they will just be hanging off the head but your way is still less time consuming and is still great you did a good job 5 star video :)
Since some people can't answer serious... Nah, his comment were great, but you wanted help. I'll help you :D. Depends on what fish :/ i'll give you something to learn :D Bass/perch works great to put you're thumb in it's mouth and break backwards until the neck snaps. You will fell and hear that happen. I would not do the same thing on a pike/musky, hen you'll have 600 theet in you're thumb... Smack the in the head until they starts shake rapidly. Thats just nerves. Same with salmon/trout :D.
the fastest and most flaw proof way is to get a club and hit it in the head hard. it may look like the fish is still alive for a second but that's just nerves. if you do this there's really no way of ruining the meat or not killing the fish.
Another Great Method is to get a nice Note Tablet with good Wifi Hot Spot & take it along fishing then log onto youtube and see the best methods for cleaning and fillet or steaking fish . This really works well on a House Boat , we fished river's over night also in the Midwest.
I always gut the fish regardless of what kind of cut I am doing. Just something my dad got me doing with whatever I catch. The guts get thrown back into the water and the carcass I will section up and put in a plastic bag or tupperware container (I do this for salt water fishing btw). I'll keep that under refrigeration until I am going to go out again. I take it out and leave it in the sun for a day or two to stink up (in the container, of course) and then it makes for wonderful chum in salt water fishing.
I usually smash it´s head to stun it and then cut through gills, after minnute you can easilly work with knife, but be careful about nerves. Nerves works even when the fish is officially dead so you can get hurt when the fish whisks.
im not the uploader, but on smaller fish, lay the fish down on a rock, the neck facing me. then i hit the backside of the head of the fish as hard as i can with the handle of my knife. this method is usefull for fish up to 700 grams i guess
I'm a ten year old and I have been asked to fillet a fish this totally worked thank you so much
Abigail Gaming _
When filleting, could you use the same technique shown for the freshwater fish, where you avoid the ribcage completely?
Those are some nice fillets! Pink Pond Princess
So many expert fish Butchers in the comment section, why are u even watching a how to video?
Why on earth are you cutting off the tastiest meat on the fish, the belly fat. Sorry guy, but you waste a lot of edible fish for the sake of expediency.
If there is any mercury in the fish, most of it will be in the belly fat, that's why eating it is not reccommended
Forrest Trim Possibly there may be mercury, though in the UK it is highly unlikely, so all that you cut off I would cook to end up with less shrivelled steaks and that can then be removed afterwards.
I have to say that I would never catch fish where there is any kind of factory upstream, what we call out trout streams have no industry discharging anything into these streams.
Riddle me this my friends, why is it, the Japanese, consider it to be the highest prized portion of the fish?
please, we all know that in japan the fins are the best part, its why all the sharks are endangered
mrbluenun removal of the belly meat wont take care of the murcury content, but it will greatly reduce the other contaminants present in the fish's environment that are in the fish.
Good video. Gonna give this a try.
Good job with this video it helped me a lot thanks.

Lol I was wondering the same thing! I always had it growing up and seeing this video made me wonder if my family does it wrong but now I just think white people think its gross haha
+whataclassyhobo basically your right haha
Yeah it's strange.. Even here in italy we keep the head of the fish, we use it to make soup most of the time
+David Perrelli Well not only Asian people. I am from Ecuador and we eat the whole trout including the eyes which are especially tasty.
he realy loves hos glove ^^
I love troat
Why take out the belly fat when cutting the fish into steaks? Man that's the most delicious part
four words..... contaminants present in water (except mercury)
Americans like to waste resources :)
Agree, dont have to eat that but I always do, and not an every day thing.
those are some nice freaking trout. Still a trout but they sure look good.
I love how the "filleting" doesn't actually show up until more than halfway through the video.
what about the y bones? i didn't think trout had y bones until i caught a few through the ice and took them home to fillet them. I ran into y bones and i didn't want to waste meat so i left them in...
Actually, a cook only throws away the guts,because the rest of the fish is used to make broth/stock for soup or sauce.
Some of the bone "waste" from filleting could be saved for fish stock ...wrap and freeze.
why did he cut the gills out separately, gut under the chin and open the stomach up and bull, it removes the gills, guts, and front fins all together, then you still have belly fat and its quick
How big where those fish
That's my job everyday >.<
and other fish
i hate fish >.
Should of had a fish bucket to wash it off because there are big ass mysterious fish out there that will jump up and grab your fish right out of your hands. Trust me I know.
lol
Anyone else got here from a piewdiepie vid?
Why cut the gills out once the fish is already dead?
ThatPerson FromAlaska its better for cooking it whole
I find steaking a trout gets more seasonings im the meat, cooking it whole doesnt.
Thats a strange way to take out the gills(spelled?) Simply cut it all the way from the back all the way to the chin, put 2 fingers around the gills and pull, all the guts and gills come straight out, in one piece!!
Must be nice to have steelheads
They are trouts
Wow, I didn't know, down here we dot get trout that big
When filleting When u cut straight down instead of a bias u waste some meat

he's wasting quite alot of meat.

what happens with the bones in the steaks though?
You pick it out when you're eating it
@@faruqali869 Just like your sister
you make fillet fish so much easier, thank you so much. I can teach my family how to fillet. @FilletingFish
Americans throw out all the best parts of the fish!! Why would you get rid of that delicious belly fat?!? And the cheeks??
why say americans? there are other people in the world that i'm sure do this.
Canadian.
AncientAmature Regarding the belly fat, we Americans have screwed up our natural resources to the point where the fat of many fish in no longer edible because that's where the toxins and heavy metals that we dumped in the water accumulate.
+Drudy90 Exactly. Cough cough, MERCURY.
AncientAmature he's fucking Canadian dipshit
For steaks do you have to eat around the ribs/spine. Or is there an easier way to cut and clean those unwanted pieces out first?
When cooked the fish will flake off the bones including of course the spine.
Holy smokes the fish changes when you cut it into stakes 4:16-4:17
He just switched sides.
excellent video, just getting into fishing thanks for the tips. very appreciated.

I just use left over salmon carcasses or other dead fish body's as stock or shark chum.
George Fleming I wait till I get home and throw the guts and carcasses (if I fillet a fish ) in the woods for the raccoons
Any hints about using (discarded) fish parts to make a good fish broth? By the way, you manual knife technique is excellent!
Boil it in little water with the usual vegetables. Salt and pepper. Herbs.
Leek, carrots, onion, celeriac.....
First cook the veggies in butter, the leek and onion, without browning them
use mild onion if preferred, échalotes, silver onion....
On the thumbnail, I thought it was a cucumber.😂
Look at a video where Risto Kosonen filets a rainbow trout. RISTO KOSONEN KALANKÄSITTELY...lohe fileerimine.
I always have trouble with cutting the second filet. Can't wait to try this technique. Thanks

Amazed at how boneless these fish are!
Yea trouts are some of the best fish.
You can also cook it with the skin as there's no scales..
@@endoffate5475 there's scales there just really small
@@raphaelsanchez1721 O yea well you still can eat that skin..
When I fillet I don't slop the fillet back on a shitty, scummy, board just to lift the skin off.

I't no problem to fillet a fish after it's gutted, so one should always gut it anyways, then you can decide after.. IMO.
Anyone who takes the skin off a Salmon doesn't deserve to eat a Salmon... Eating sushi is the only excuse to discard Salmon skin.
so much unesasary waste.
Why did you do the trout like that there is an easier way to you cut half way up the stomach and maybe a quarter the look under it jaw there two hole but skin around it you put the in between the hole the just pull with your fingers then front fin is gone and the guts you won't have to grab with your hands they will just be hanging off the head but your way is still less time consuming and is still great you did a good job 5 star video :)
The way you pronounce trout kills me on the inside. Say the word out, then add "tr" to it. Unbelievable
Great video on the fillet process! Thanks helps me out now, appreciate it
I'll take all the parts you cut off, that belly fat and head meat gives TONS of flavor to the rest of the steaks!!
Since some people can't answer serious... Nah, his comment were great, but you wanted help. I'll help you :D.

But not everyone likes bones in their fish when they eat it though. It’s not ready for the grill if it’s full of bones
the fastest and most flaw proof way is to get a club and hit it in the head hard. it may look like the fish is still alive for a second but that's just nerves. if you do this there's really no way of ruining the meat or not killing the fish.
There is not blood against fish backbones, they are kidneys!!
Isn't there lots of bones in the steaks?
There is the backbone but either way you always get little pin bones
Trus semagat om. Jngan lupa ☕
Damn, you guys eat the scales too or something? Cuz I didn't hear anything about removing scales...
Who can eat a trout with the bones still in it? Not me, it's impossible.
Why doesn't he mind spilling gall all around the fish?
There are 24 gauge shotguns. They are a very small caliber used in some European countries.
What about the pinbones....those last fillets aren't boneless yet
Just take as small club that's about a foot long and give it a good wak right on the head
Damn where u catching those trout?
the fish is a paid actor so animal was not harmed during the vidio
Why don't you take out the pin bones on the Rainbow trout??
Anyone else just here to troll the people that say "is the fish ok"
Another Great Method is to get a nice Note Tablet with good Wifi Hot Spot & take it along fishing then log onto youtube and see the best methods for cleaning and fillet or steaking fish . This really works well on a House Boat , we fished river's over night also in the Midwest.
Trout are finger food you can feel the bones as you eat it
I hope you know that there is no such thing as a"24 gauge" shotgun.
I always gut the fish regardless of what kind of cut I am doing. Just something my dad got me doing with whatever I catch.

What's a good fillet knife to buy?
I always have trouble with the side bones over the rib cage. Is there a way to fillet this kind of fish and de-bone it entirely?
Yes. Using the edge of the knife, find the pin bones. Then, you can either cut them out, or pull them out. On smaller fish, you can cook them away.
Rapala!! Greetings from Finland :D
he's just throwing all those meat away.
Before making a video learn first how to fillet fish.
Makes it look easy.
It looks like he didn’t even bleed the fish. There is sooooo much blood in that meat still 🤮
It’s fine just wash it off we’ve never bleed trout or catfish or any fish for that matter
Going on a fishing trip with some buddies from school, want to do a sort of “catch and cook” weekend, very useful guide!
If its hard if someone is left handed?
Do you scale the skin if you are leaving it on? What about the Y bones?
I usually smash it´s head to stun it and then cut through gills, after minnute you can easilly work with knife, but be careful about nerves. Nerves works even when the fish is officially dead so you can get hurt when the fish whisks.

this method is usefull for fish up to 700 grams i guess
well... live and learn. I did not know that. But i normally go by domestic calibers, not foreign. just throwing that out there....
you don't take the bone out of the steak fillets. Only when you fillet the fish from head to tail do you take out backbone and ribcage.
The gills look like red coral
Thank you. Learned a lot. 😳😎😎😃😃😃☺☺
well done thanks for sharing, so do you leave the pin bones in the fillet?
Your filet is full of bones
he forgot to scale the fish
Where are you from brother?
Sorry but there is a .24 gauge.
Nah. Try a .50 Caliber Rifle.
In the future, try to get more Rapala logos into your video.
You use the head for stock apart form that that's all you can use it for
This is the best video on this subject I've seen. Very proficient.
Great video. omg how you took that rainbowtrout's skin of. I would totally mess up.
