Good video, I have been ocean fishing off south Florida for over 50 years and caught many many Blackfins. First I ever heard about the “ Collar Meat”, you never stop learning, thx

[@globalbossevent7284]

left too much meat on the bone to have a knife sponsor

[@dimasprajoko]

And for a fish shop, we sold that in a jar or covered tray, however it does not count as yield and that loin price goes up.
People love to think fillet prices are based on labour of filleter and what what. but its the yield that affects the price per weight of a fish fillet price
Some people proud themself for fastest filleter in work or what what ever, and forgot that its the balance between how fast you can get things done, but also the yield you've done on a fish. And you'd be wondering why skinless fillet seem to be more pricier
"But taking the skin off is easy" 😄 yeah...... even a baby can do it, and leave a world of meat on the skin? also yes😁Cut through the skin and leave behind some skin? also yes 😄and then the kids panic on not being able to remove that small patch of skin? 🤣
Yeap, a filleter doesnt JUST know how to fillet, but know what to do when a fuckup happens, and how to fix it
Its all fun and games and tiktok fame, till the fuckups happens and the yield goes low🥴

Try b.b.q ing this type of fish
Whoa.....youll love it. Thats tuna.

[@peady64]

You left a ton of meat on the carcass. One suggestion, treat the knife like a knife and not a saw. Smooth easy strokes instead of the sawing action will result in cleaner cuts.

I came here for consolation after I just had to fillet a good tuna at a friend's house with a knife that was as sharp as your best spoon...

[@TomyTekOutdoors]

Great video. I just finished my first tuna trip yesterday. We kept a few whole so we can learn to clean them ourselves. I'll be trying to clean my first one this afternoon. Thanks for sharing your knowledge.

You always explain so perfectly. 🎉

[@fredfable5655]

You are improving ...slowly improvement. Good!
This time you save the collar, great!
But, you may remove the collar still attached to the ventral section ("Ventresca" in Castillian/Spanish) and cook alltogheteher flatten at oven for example...
The ventral section ("Ventresca", again) is in most of the cases one of the best parts, getting rid of it is a pity.
In most US style cleaning, it ends at the sea bottom or trash can, a true shame...

Thank you.

[@WilliamMarkovich-u1b]

Love this!!! As this is my fav ocean pastimes angling and seeing what the sea will give me! Ha.

[@ayyylmao9022]

Was this fish bled while it was still alive? Wondering how much different the inside meat would look if it was bled.

[@Toasty8989]

What

[@ayyylmao9022]

@Imbored4 apparently you can bleed the fish as soon as you catch it, and the resulting meat quality will be different.

[@bnbailey]

Really nice demo. I know this video is several years old but this is the kind of content that lasts.

[@moonson20]

You forgot to get/mention the cheek meat. espcially on bigger fish.

[@getsum697]

Great and informative video without too much unnecessary yapping. Keep up the good work!

[@arengreen4621]

[@dakang2341]

Does this hurt the fish?

[@collinsallee6708]

Nope, just barely tickles, I hear they really enjoy it. They will be just fine.
