  • They're super abundant, hard fighting and always on the bite, but those darned Y bones take all the fun out of eating them. Yes, pike are one of the best and most underrated fish on the table, especially when they come of cool spring, fall or winter water. But they have an extra row of bones in the top of the filet that too few people know how to remove. Watch this video and start getting out the Y bones on your own.

    Pike is great eating. That is exactly how I clean them too. This is a great video, thanks for posting.

    My favorite freshwater fish absolutely. I live in Florida but I make a number of trips to Canada fishing every summer. Fabulous eating fish and soo much fun to catch.
    Now that I have watched, that one isn't fabulous eating. That fish looks like raccoons got to it. Too bad really

    I’m going to try this fish 🎣 👍🏿

  • @sharingthetruthfromalaska9888

    This is absolutely the most difficult way to do this. Do yourself a favor and search the 5 fillet method. Much faster and easier.

    Fillet on a piece of rough fence board. The fish won't slide around. A slippery plastic or stainless steel table top are dangerously slippery.

    Pull the fish to the edge of the table. That makes it a lot easier. Your knuckles should be out in mid air, not bouncing off the table.

    Looks like you did not bleed the fish out, it will taste better if you do .

    For a wildlife organization I’d expect you at least keep the fish edible for the demonstration. I don’t think even my cat would eat that fish. Look at the flesh as he runs his knife over the rib cage and you’ll be sick. Confused too cause it appears to have been gutted and bled which is good, then someone put it outside in the sun for a day or two to age the meat lol very befuddling.

    why does the meat look like that :////////

    • @carlh7795
      @carlh7795 Před 6 lety +1

      Because it wasn't tossed on ice or at least kept in cold water after being caught. Not good.

    • @michaelsigafoos2620
      @michaelsigafoos2620 Před 6 lety

      I was thinking that. Your fish will NOT taste the same if you dont put it in ice.
