How to Fillet Fish: Largemouth Bass
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 26 พ.ค. 2016
- There are many ways to prepare fresh largemouth bass for the dinner table, and this video shows how to fillet them. The fillets are excellent for baking, frying, or grilling. This technique can also apply to a wide variety of freshwater fish such as walleye, perch, smallmouth bass, trout, and striped bass, as well as saltwater fish such as sea trout and red drum. For filleting panfish such as bluegill, bream, crappie and sunfish see our other video: (Check out our video on how to fillet bluegill-- • How to Scale and Fille... )

Best video I've seen, you actually explain what you are doing, and why, without assuming your viewers have been doing this for years. Good job on the video.
This was incredibly helpful, thank you very much. I'm getting a lot better at this already!
Great video! I like that you explain everything. I LOVE that you give the times on the video so we can go to exactly what we’re looking for.
Best video I've seen on fileting bass. Great job man 👏
Good video - you make it look too easy.
It's harder to filet a smaller bass - but that's what makes this a good tutorial.
Best one on the you tube.
Excellent!
Thank you
Wow. Really helpful. Thanks!
Added this video to my beginners fishing video playlist. You didn't destroy the the fish and it was very instructive. I myself enjoy bass and I use to descale and gut but this is much better. I guess you can use the remains as bait or soup. Thank you.
thank you for the video!
Very nice. Thank you
Great video man.
Nice job. I appreciate your help :)
Oh wow, thank you so much!
There are so many fishermen today are saying bass are poisonous and horrible eating fish are just plain stupid.
They just tryna keep the bass in the water fr
That dam fly
How did you catch so many bass, where i live i canonly manage to catch striper
Ive been trying for large mouth and bluegill
Anyway u did an awesome job id like some tips on bait or something to catch those, i live in California
Never seen one filleted quite like that, but whatever works. But you're wasting a lot of meat on the fish. Head meat, internal meat, and even the cut with the intramuscular bones. If you like fish patties, that cut is perfect. Put a few of those through a meat grinder, and those little bones turn into such fine pieces that you can't even tell they're in the meat. Many fish patties even have the rib bones left in, when the fish is small enough. Anyway, you threw away enough meat to make a very good fish broth, or the beginning of a pot of fish stew, or fish soup.
Can you suggest some videos that show some of the things you describe? I'm especially interested in the fish broth/soup/stew ideas.
That bass is like 10 inches take one bigger I would never keep a bass that small
Jared Hively I know right that's a sad bass
Jared Hively most spots in Vermont allow you to keep 10 inch bass
Legal limits are set by people much more qualified than you.
Ever hear of a slot lake? Many lakes have size limits within a range. A Lake is set where you can keep bass from 8" - 15" and under and over go back.
Me? I keep the last legal fish of the day for dinner. S'all I need. One.
that skin taste really good. so sweet and tangy. why you cut it off
field31 Yeah yummy skin. I never waste it.
filet means meat only. No skin or bones.
Karam J not always. I love eating bass skin
Yea when i do that i also leave the skin on, so much flavor
do you have to gut the fish first
Robert Gildo no
Robert Gildo no
I would aleays gut a fish befire fillet, and bleed it out.
It keeps the meat uncontaimnated and clean, resulting in a better taste.
Also scale before anything as scales on any fish carry bacteria 👍🏼
i thought you gut it first
field31 You don't need to.

Man, I have a way stricter size limit to my "keepers". Thats more work them food.
Damn bro are you broke ?? That won’t even feed my damn dog lol 😂
Well he has like 100 of them

Fish are fer eatin
+David Stone not Bass, their game fish. They're meant to caught and released.
No they are meant to be eating. People have eaten bass for thousands of years.
+chris garone ground hogs have been around for ever and no one eats those 😷
Mmm, I'm eating some Bass right now. FUCKING DELICIOUS TOO
thats a small bass
So many fish to eat. Can buy crappy cod at a grocery store that tastes way better and doesn't ruin the sport of bass fishing.
It doesnt ruin sport fishing lol. And have you even tried bass? Its delicious
Bass are the most annoying fish I always catch em while crappie fishing I just step on there heads and leave em on the bank
Rance freeze the bass and mail em to me lmao
@@rancel6103 ill take you bass wit the heads un crushed please lol
@@rancel6103 How cruel! at least just throw them back in if you don't want them.. arsehole
More so- why did you harvest freaking babies dude?! I know this is a 4 year old vid but wtf those are barley 8" long. If you want small fillets then catch sun fish and let the bass grow so you actually have dinner
God!! what are we Japanese? Don't eat bass.. Catch and release jaggoff
Bass Hunter oh just stop... we are humans and fish is delicious. Act like he is taking trophies...
Bass Hunter GOD put fish on earth to eat while some just make sport out of it grow up
Anthony Childs baas aren't good eating fish
Bingo! solid comment..Again why are people against eating bass is just stupid.

12 inch bass is legal size mcjagger
Excuse please, but there is no such word as - as you pronounce it - fill-aa. The word is 'fillet' pronounced 'fill-it'. Like millions of others, you have been McDonald-ized.
Back in the 1960's, McDonalds came out with the Fillet of Fish, a marketing gimmick to relate fish to 'fillet (fill-aa) mignon'. But that is the French name a cut of beef. In English, we use a fill-it-ing knife to 'fill-it a fish', and what you get is a fish 'fill-it'.

@@potatooverload4487 Sounds daft they're not French, the word is Fill-it
