Ya Boi It‘s Australian for sure
hahahaha
kind of feels like South African. probably wrong but my South African friends English sound like Australian Americans.
Kinda sounds Irish
Ruymand he’s not from SA, sounds half Irish half Aussie
Awesome Chef Mike! We just caught fish while we are camping and you make the filleting SO SIMPLE! Time to get to work filleting our fresh catch!
How did it go?
@@remio1377 I was there it went horribly
@@pumpkineater6975i was there, they filleted 20 fish as good as a sushi master!!!!
@@sonofagun5305I was there, they filleted the fish to a satisfactory level. An average taste.
@@remio1377 I wasn't there I dont know
Wonderfully instructed and helpful! I really appreciate that you took the time to make this video. Thanks!

Anyone else here because you're broke and plan on trying to catch fish from the local river to avoid paying the ridiculous cost of meat?
that’s my problem too and the big problem not that i’m broke no it’s the local river is without fish
If you live near the ocean get into spearfishing. It’s super fun and you get unlimited meat after the initial investment.
@@bryanlane7208 where do you live brother
I am going on a camping trip this weekend and can wait to try this out 😊
lol yeah, I've just bought an apartment and is going to be broke for a few years. Got a book on harvesting edible plants in the wild as well 😊
So easily explained, going to fillet my fish right now! Thanks from South Africa.
You make it look easy, though I'm sure it's more challenging than I expect it to be. :)
Thanks a lot, I'm actually just a kid but I managed to get a piece of a much larger salmon using a technique similar to this, awesome video!
This last year i started cooking different dishes, and so far my girlfriend fell in love with what am cooking so much that she told me if i cook she will wash everything every day :P
I tried to filit a fish today and it came to me really easy. Some people are born with talents am wandering if i had a great talent at cooking and i never knew because i never tried
Never seen someone fillet a fish without gutting it or removing the head. Very interesting technique
I thought the same thing but I think the gut it at the market. Or maybe they don't idk I don't buy fish like that.
@Jamie Saunders Oh good thing they killed it then.
this is how you fillet fish, how have you been doing it?
You only gut it if you eating it whole
This video is not only a tutorial on how to fillet a fish, but also how to properly add background music to a video. It's not jarring and it doesn't overpower the speaker. Content creators, take note.
Thank you. Caught my first fish today and had no clue how to do this. Great short video.
How did it taste?

"let the knife do the work" gordon ramsay says this all the time in his masterclass lmaoo
Ear smear doesn't matter very good video good photography and very informative and I just happened to watch it when I came home with 4 Spanish mackerel from my boat perfect timing

Thank you. I've been cooking for many years but have NEVER filleted a fish. I'm excited to try it.
Loved this video. Could not for the life of me deal with your accent. As an Australian I heard every every single time your accent slipped from US to Aus. Freaked me out.
It looks fun. I'll be sure to try it out, thanks!
OlyimpicChamp3 Youre welcome, let me know how it goes. :)
Thanks for the tips. I filleted my own fish for the first time today (it was a pretty hefty sized mahseer) and i can completely agree that the satisfaction is addicting
When I began eating meat and fish again since being a 5-year veggie, I promised myself to not be in ignorance as to the whole experience of eating meat; from farm to table.
This summer, a challenge for me is to catch, fillet, and prepare a fish in a full circle of respect and gratitude for the nourishment this life will give me. I'm time-framing it to my two weeks at the cottage this fri. Will report back, and now I have no excuse that I don't know how to fillet a fish.
Namasthe :)
melanie sakowski Super excited for you Melanie, let me know how it goes. :)
I will!
Oi Mike, I did it, with a fresh caught red snapper! it was neat, and tasted so good BBQ'd in butter, salt and pepper, simple and yum :) Food tastes so good when from start to end you play as big a role as you can in the process, nah? Namaste
19 Georgia girl. Moving to MO to do some fishing near my brother. My mother laid a fishing rod on my bed for my birthday because I love salmon and always enjoyed the idea of catching my own from start to finish. I was expecting it to be a bit more gore-intensive.
I plan on catching all sorts of fish while I’m there and taking them to my brother for the holidays. Wish me luck :) I think I’m looking forward to filleting them more than I am catching them now
Good luck girl 😇
I'm 19 too and I always catch fish with my mom. It's fun to fish with family
Sending love from India
I recently tried a recipe for whole branzino and it tastes so good, but the bones are an issue. Now I know how to get rid of them thanks to you. Appreciate it!
not only have i learnt how to fillet a fish, but i have also discovered a beautiful song (your intro). thank you very much chef!
I really enjoyed watching and definitely learnt a thing or 2
Super clear and informative. Thank you so much for this tutorial.
I ordered two of these based on the reviews. ua-cam.com/users/postUgkxqmKabisEv81ul5v7OhvVxxOpt2CJruI- Received them on time and they look good. I really like the handle on these knives as they feel good in my hand. I'm giving them 4 stars on look and feel, but have not had the chance to put them to the test yet. I mostly fish for catfish and can hopefully try them out in the next few days. If they hold an edge throughout a limit of catfish, they'll be worth another star.Update...I used the 9" strong and the 9" fillet on a mess of catfish. I did put a sharpening on these before I started. I want a razor edge to fillet fish but they weren't quite that sharp. The people who gave these knives crappy reviews and said they were sending them back was because they weren't razor sharp. So what, do they not have a knife sharpener?? Good grief! I mean you have to sharpen any knife from time to time.I personally like them and am pleased with them. If you're too lazy to sharpen a knife then hire someone to clean your fish lol.I've never bought a knife in my life that would shave hair right out of the box. Don't be afraid to purchase the knives. They're pretty nice in my opinion.
You saved me!) I adore such a simple but effective approach. Will try it now
Excellent tutorial! Easy to follow and very satisfying filleting your own fish. I have subscribed to your channel. Thank you.
Just what I was looking for. Quick and to the point. Looks easy we shall see. Liked that you pronounced fillet properly and not 'fillay' as some do.😊
That was intensely pleasant to watch. I'm going to buy a fish!
Australian or American?

I heard that the Australian accent is slowly becoming more and more American due to Hollywood.
Fantastic I had no idea but now am 🔥🔥🔥
Nice, thanks for this been putting this off for the last 40 years
One tip for filleting the fish is, when you go over the backbone with the knife, move your knife downwards to get the meat on the other side
This minimizes meat wastage
This video is so simple and great thankyou so much!!!
Love the video. And as a Canadian now living in New Zealand, his accent is buzzy... like both accents together
excellent. well done and straight to the point
You are explaining so clear all of the other you tubers were too fast lol 😂
Superb.I did fillet first time in my life.Enjoyed. Sure I will do it myself .It wasn't hard as I thought all the years 😂.It's easy.
Now I feel like going fishing. And yes, sharp knife makes kitchen work safer, easier and more fun, but your knife is really, really sharp.
I would like to suggest using a moist towel to wipe off the knife periodically as you go about processing a fish. It will help in keeping debris from the cuts.
is the fish ok?
Yes, hes alive and swimming in the ocean with his family.
UFOENGINE He dead.
No. No he's not.
Yes the fish want some spa and have a surgery
Yea. We miss him. But thank lord, he didnt feel any pain going through all this.
make sure to clean your knife in every cut, that's what Gordon Ramsay taught me LOL
It doesn’t matter when you fillet a fish because there’s not much juice or anything. Actually, it doesn’t really matter unless you use the same knife for different foods. Then it matters.
@@iceyplayz3388 true
I love to give my kids dead fish heads! Fun for the whole family!
😂
Lmao
God ... Owwww
You are just a p*ssy
I like the way of cutting, welcome to India I surely want to show some fish recipes....
I was taught to fillet this way by my papaw and my dad, with one exception; don't cut all the way through at the tail. Flip the fillet behind the fish, then slide your blade between the skin and meat. You have skinless fillets, and all of the carcass is in one easy to toss piece.
I don't want to fillet a fish....but I watched the whole video and it was pretty satisfying :D
thank you so much....first time trying and i did a decent job. You were right, once i sharpened the knife it did most of the work
This method worked best for me. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you! Now to try it on a whole pacific rockfish soon.
Amazing fillet skills.
77 year old man just learned how to fillet a fish. Going fishing now.
Almost 70 year old woman here who couldn't bring herself to clean the fish she caught at the lake as a child. Fascinated by the ease of it all, I'm going to give this a go. The cats will enjoy the rest. 😂🦈🎣
This guy knows what's up
Nice classical guitar music!
Thank you. Can you suggest the knife or knives that could be used.
Thank you 🌷
I really do like that knife. Would you mind sharing what model is that? Thanks a lot!
It appears to be a Wusthof utility knife.
closest thing I could find was a Zwilling Diplome Fillet Knife
It's a Zwilling J.A. Henckels...not the best but it is a good knife
@@hcnevils I'm currently looking at knives. I'm pretty close to getting a set of classic wusthof knife
Thanks, Hugh Jackman!
One word "Art"
Very helpful &professional sir......
That knife cuts like butter
Thank youu!! I really need this because my school need us students to video ourselves cutting a fish with different technique but choose one🤧
Thnks u sir im from sri lanka 💕💕💕
Lived what you did. What model n size the knife you used? Can you show how to remove the skin? Batter for frying? Tasty
Thank you so much ❤
Is that dwarf fortres music in the background lol
Thank you for showing!
amazing videos thank you
So nice cutting style , thank you
Thanks for the info I'm 14 and I caught 2 fish in the lake near my grandmas house and in gonna cut them up and feed them to the chickens
Which specific knife are you using to do the filleting? The brand looks like Zwilling but which model of knife is it?
Dude has a mixture accents of Australian, American, and Amercian-Southern. Wild!
He could be South African, the accent sounds like American-Australian
“Whip off the tail”
That’s the best part 😢
Lovely......way of explaining....u made it so easy..india
My grandson's super good at catching fish 🐟🐟🐠🐠
Beautiful fish. I was just about to put basa on my shopping list, but Meckerel looks so delish.

Thanks Chef Mike

Thank you for this video, subscribed and a thumbs up.
bro, thanks. just thanks, no other words.
Cool! You made it look easy. Now, please also recommend some good sharp knives. Thanks.
I have a question. With the bones and head do you make a stock of just that or do you freeze and save up until you have enough? Do you use the whole head to make the stock?
You're not the Wolverine, are you sir? 🤣
But anyways thanks for this video! I mma go fillet the fish now!!!!
No BS, straight to point!
I’m trying to learn to do this for camping
This was incredibly helpful!
Great video

Great job thanks
You made this look so easy! Going to try it
I enjoyed this video. Thank you sir.
