I like the way you don't waste the belly meat. I see so many guys slice along the white edges of the belly and throw it away instead of just making one cut down the middle of the belly.
I have to say that is pretty slick, l catch a lot of pike in Canada and have always struggled with getting the y bones out and butchering the fillet. I will definitely give your method a try it makes a lot more sense to handle a smaller piece of fish rather than a large piece, better control of the knife and less meat wasted. Thanks for sharing your method.
Lol. And instead of pike we usually just call them “Jack fish” or Jack. And we call our walleye “pickeral”. I know that’s misleading! Today I have some Jack in the freezer that is getting a little old so I’m canning it. Just to top up a canning batch I’m needing to add a couple “fill-its” of walleye! We call the result canned “Jack-Eye”. 😂😂😂. Happy fishing!
A fillet. I never herd anyone call the fillets a fillit. Lol. Im gonna start saying that when im cleaning fish with my uncle. Nice job on the cleaning. Nice good size pieces for eating. Bite sizes. Are nice then ya dont got the whole fish falling apart on ya. Keep up he l)
Best method I've seen so far! Really easy. Thanks for the video! I think pike are an under-rated table fare
Thanks. Been 10 years since I made that video and that's still my go to method for pike. Happy fishing!
Thankyou so much i like that and i have struggled with doing the whole fillet for years i can hardly wait to try it.
Thanks for sharing. I bet smoked pike is delicious

Old video but it still works! I am cleaning up some pike this morning and still use the exact same method over any other. Happy fishing!
Excellent video! Good job, right to the point, thank you👊
Thanks. Still use that method to this day.

Very unique and effective method for getting boneless pike fillets! Thanks for posting this!
Beautiful. Thank you! Way easy.
Nice technique. Thank you for sharing from 2021
Thanks for the tip. Easy
You’re welcome
Nice method. I will try it.
Whenever possible, Chill the fish first. That firms it up and makes it easier.
Cool man, actually probably a little easier working with the smaller pieces instead of the whole fillet. Thanks
FILL-LAY. NOT. FILL-IT!
In Canada it's fill-it.

The fill-it pronunciation is Canadian, at least the first time I heard it that way was when I was at a camp in Canada.
Old video but easiest and best for those graduating from 5 filet method.
Slick
Thank you. Great!
