If your grandpa couldn't show you how to catch, kill, gut, clean, fillet, and cook a fish... then this guy is your temporary grandfather!
My grandpa died when he was teaching me to fish
Mine died to cancer when I was 5
My grandpa is too old
@ThatOneAsianBroChick - Certainly sounds like win-win to me!
Dads side grandpa died in 1983 and my moms side grandpa died of leukemia
Theres probably 1000+ videos showing this, but this is the only one where I felt like I was being taught by a master. Wonderful stuff. Thank you for your teachings.
Me too! I liked that he dispatched it first then did the demo on how to do it, so the fish didn’t sit there and suffer during the lesson.
How cool would it be to be his grandson?
For real
Just found this guy right now. He is JUST like my grandpa was. He used to take me on fishing trips all the time and he was a great cook. Unfortunately he died almost 2 years ago. It's sad because we had so many plans, and SO many fish to catch!
Harvey Dent yeah
Harvey Dent he should be a cheif for cooking fish
Harvey Dent no cauze i like his vidios i subcribe 100000 for him don"t judge me!
I'm 33. born and raised in the Bronx. Some day. I'll catch and cook a fish...
Update: I'm 37, I still haven't done it. My fam has a house by the Hudson just need a rod and I can do it! I seen them sitting by a lake!
Update: summer of 2021 or bust!
OmAr LiVeS good luck to you, Sir.
Good luck sir! just don’t catch em in the river near your city (probably radioactive)
Find a clean lake and go for it. Generally speaking, if the lake is used as a public water source, it's "probably" alright to fish from, just make sure you do it legally or you might get your fishing trip ruined. Once you knock it over the head, commit to getting it cleaned and cooked and eaten. Your comment was a good year ago, I wonder if you ever did it.
OmAr LiVeS Boogie Down in the House!
1st u gotta learn to catch a good fish. This is one of lifes awesomest moments. Cooking a fresh caught rainbow trout.. mmmmmmmmmmmm...
I respected the man more after he dropped the fish and put it back in the pan....
Alfonzo Terrones exactly
Alfonzo Terrones once you're 60+, your wife's ghost is more likely to kill you than a tiny bit of dirt on a fish
Jesus Christ still spreading wisdom 2000 yrs later
ahahahah
Why? I' ve dropped a whole plate of freshly cooked steaks and after we wiped off most of the dust with our hands, we blew lightly at them and then we ate them. They tasted just like if I hadn't dropped them.
Did anyone else notice that when he took the heart out it was still beating on the board
Human hearts have their own device for pumping blood, it's called the sinoatrial node. It fires and pumps independently from the brain. It doesn't require the brain to function just oxygenated blood. I imagine the fish is like that, in that it was very much dead... But the heart keeps going for a while. In humans, if that node wasn't there, heart transplants would be nearly impossible.
Thats how you know its fresh
@@BigBenzilla oh, thank you for explaining it :)
@@johnalbert6950 lol
Yep that’s crazy
Thanks for killing the fish first, a lot of sick people out there forget to kill it before skinning it. Great lessons from a obvious pro. Thanks!
It's pretty sick murdering a fish anyway...
@@jamess9579 well it's not because he's eating it
@@Psyenic So it's OK to murder something if you're going to eat it? Obviously not. Why not just leave it to live its life where it is and eat one of the many and widely available vegan alternatives?
@@jamess9579 so your argument is basically, don't kill things and treating every animal as your equal? Well should we prosecute other animals for "murder"
@@Psyenic No, I think you have extrapolated from what I said. Here is why:
(1) Not murdering animals for food when there are a vast number of easily accessible and entirely adequate alternatives, is *not the same as* "treating every animal as your equal" (although you can do that too, if you really want -- that would be great). We can have animals as pets, leave animals to roam in the wild, and do what is sensible. Just don't hurt them, harm them, or kill them. There's no point, nobody needs to do that!
(2) The clear difference here, is that animals that kill and eat other animals in the wild do not have the intelligence to question whether that is morally acceptable, it's simply instinct. However we do, and we don;t need to act on instinct (and we arguably don't have a predatory one, anyway). Further to all of this, these animals do not have alternative options like tofu, plant burgers, grains, lentils, seitan, etc etc...
Here is the part you did understand: "Don't kill things".
But seriously, why did this guy need to kill the fish that was just living its life, that didn't want to die or be harmed? Why not just eat a damn plant burger? Surely you agree this would be better for everyone?
Thanks for the sensible debate!
I will always remember my first fishing experience. I was about 6 years old, and my mother took me to a salmon farm, where little kiddies like me were guaranteed a catch. Well I caught one, and the kind man who worked there showed me how to clean it. Well the part I remember best, was when he pulled out the heart of the salmon like this gentleman did. He lay the heart on the palm of his hand, gave it CPR with his finger, and it continued to beat on its own. Blew, my, little, mind. And at 5:17, you can see the heart of this trout still beating. Not as amazing as an adult, but it rocked my world as a kid. Thanks for the video!!
strange the way a heart keeps on beating if it is pulled out. when the Aztecs used to sacrifice people the would pull out the heart and it would also keep on beating
Wow sounds totally depressing. Almost ripped my heart out hearing about this. One wonders how mass murderers are born..
+spaaggetii - I certainly hope you're not serious.....no one can be that ignorant.
ROCKaholic
Well one of you is disturbing. You or the 'gentleman'. Go figure
spaaggetii what are you talking about ?
I'm a meat eater who has always eaten factory-farmed meat and I am not proud of it at all. I'm going to a cottage this weekend and have taken meticulous notes from this video. If I'm going to eat meat, I should have the courage and knowledge to prepare it myself. Fingers crossed.
Pro tip: Save the guts and bloody gunk as chum for catching some crab, they love that stuff.
Or throw it at the seagal's and watch them fight
@@madmoose2492 after eat seagals
@@igorgut8723 ughhhh... sure
I use chicken livers or hearts they are great
@@madmoose2492 conclusion: you can use it for bait or entertainment
I've seen this video before. About a year ago. My grandpa had recently passed and i came across this. I teared up watching this. Experiencing this was similar to being with him again. I never wanted anything more than to go fishing with my grandpa one more time. I love this man more than I can explain.
I feel ya - my grandpa was a master trout fisherman. He'd catch the limit of 6~7 trout before the first hour off the buzzer. I wish I learned more from him, but he passed when I was 8 y/o or so.
This is exactly why I put a mix of seasoning, olive oil, and tinfoil in my water bottle bag. The only thing I haven't made myself for my bag is a small fishing kit and that's because I only recently started fishing avidly as before I was quite casual and didn't really know what to keep in a kit. A little tip whether you drink them or not 5-Hour Energy bottles are PERFECT for cooking oil.
?
5:18 if you see closely the heart is still pumping :D
+simezra I noticed that as well, pretty cool
+simezra That is normal when you have freshly killed trout.
+Flederratte but was it still alive I wanna go fishing but aint gonna fillet it aliveunless Im starving
+Gloria mcmillan
You should numb fish by giving them a solid punch on the skull where the brain is underneath. Then you kill them by blood loss, you can eitger stab the heart or cut the blood vessel that goes to the gills. If you have done it right you should see some drops of blood coming out.
Then the fish is dying or already dead. If you do not want to filet a fish that is still moving or which has a still pumping heart you can simply wait some time (until it stops moving) after you killed it.
I think it is great, that you care about the fish! Go fishing and if you catch something treat it respectful. Kill it fast if you want to use (eat) it, otherwise release it to its natural habitat.
If you want to filet a fish you should probably watch some other videos, Graeme is wasting quite a lot of meat in this video. This might be the same when you do it for the first time, but once you did it some times you will become better. Maybe I will make a video how I clean and filet trout, carp and zander.
seen one video were they stabbed the fish's brain .and thank you, Id love it if you made one.
Looked like you ate the bloody stuff at 6:00 lol
Yep
Terra I think he did
Therese he ate it
i eat me
he threw them in to the woods u can hear when it hits something
When i was young (around 13) friends of my parents had a rainbow trout farm, so whenever someone ordered fish, their son (same age as me) and I would go to the pond and fish the order.. then we'd kill the fish with a big stick (same method as used in the video.. no half-ass smacking!), and then we'd gut the fish so this friends' mother could sell them fresh..
Watching this video brings me back 25 years and brings back great memories! Thanks!
Good times as i see!
he reminds me of that guy from the wild thornberry
Amv4You Nigel Thornberry
Smashing!
I can imagine a health inspector watching this video and having a heart attack. lol
Tim Eubanks compared to any fast food joint this literally is the most clean meal prep ever
I trust this way more than the unseen filth in a restaurant
why
@@skittlesbutwithchocolatein2274 because most places indoors people don't bother to clean much in most places.
*watches introduction
I like this man already.
Watching this felt like learning from my grandpa as a kid. Thank you!!
This is by far the best video I’ve watched regarding dispatching the fish. I like that it was already deceased. Many others the fish is still alive with no clue how long, and the person doing the demonstration is shouting out to friends, talking unnecessarily while the fish still suffers. I 100% support hunting and fishing, but always believe there are humane and ethical ways to do it. So, thank you!
growing up as a girl my family never let me watch this process, but I've always wanted to know! thank you
Thank you for the demo on the killing part. Humane and easy to follow. Much appreciated!
I’ve had to endure videos after videos to find a good one but this was the only one that worked, thank you kindly, very entertaining
are you related to Stan Lee ?
Wan Mohd Amjad 93 if he was stab lee wouldn’t be dealing with the shit he is now
@@jbhrantz8087 or maybe he just likes this lifestyle
Wan Mohd Amjad 93 Stan lee died at 95
he is simply known as FISHER MAN
That heart still pumping
Well, my father doesn't know how to fish, his father got deported and my other grandfather died in 07, so coming from someone with no one really there to teach me this stuff, I greatly appreciate the content.
Very good video, and you're correct about most people not fully understanding exactly where their food comes from at a market. I personally would like to see more hunting, fishing, and bushcraft videos and guides from you.
You, sir, are like if Stan lee were British, a good cook, and a survival expert. Well done!
when you start to fillet make a cut on a 45 degree angle towards the head so you dont waste any meet
meat*
He certainly cut that fish up sparingly didnt he.
Me and my dad do that too
When I was a kid, I didn't filet the fish. I cleaned it and into the pan it went. I separated the meat from the bones when eating it. Fried tail fins are delicious (the softer parts that is).
Thank you very much for a very educational video. I’ve always need to know EXACTLY how to do something, and no one goes as into depth as you have. Thank you for some of the most important information I’ve picked up thus far. Happy new year!
I needed this info just in case the end of days.
I've never filleted a fish or watched anyone do it. High knowledge yield. Thanks!
Thank you for showing me how to do this! Gonna make my dad proud by learning how to do this and take him fishing for the first time since I was about 6.
cool! Thanks for posting. Love fish. grandfather fished religiously. even went out with him a few times during my summer youths but I never had enough interest to ask him how he prepares fish out in the wilderness. Now that i'm older I'm getting more and more into roughing it and taking his old poles out now that he has dementia. Great info to know, much appreciated.
got to love yr show pops, top top bloke, made my day brilliant
Watching this while thinking about what menu im gonna cook my catch while still trying to prep and filleting the fish in the wood.. this video really help alot of people.
Me and my hubby recently started fishing. With little to no experience, today was our second day and we caught a mackerel.. we were so happy but someone swore up and down it was a contaminated fish called topsmelt. He kept bugging us until we grew very doubtful and threw it back.. (our phone was dead so we couldn't even Google it to confirm what we thought it was) but now I'm dedicating myself to learn names and types so we can fish more. But I also want to learn how to properly kill and filet fish. Since I've never had family who did it. So thank you for teaching us who grew up with no knowledge 😊
If you want to keep it tasting nice, it's always good to cut the gills after you kill it and wash it out in the water. Stops lactic acid building up and souring in it. It's not a massive difference, but if you're taking it home it definitely does make a difference.
I have to say: I enjoyed this tutorial. Very informative from start to finish. This was my first video I watched that I had to subscribe. You hit on every point I wanted to know about. Two thumbs up!
I’m 11 years old and I love the wilderness and hunting etc and I’ve never known how to clean a fish even though I loveeeeee fishing but now I do thank you so much this video was extremely helpful I’m planning camping for the weekend with my friend and where not gonna bring any food so ye this is extremely helpful that’s all I wanted to say
I remember the 1st time I went fishing... I was with my dad at the local grocery store only a couple of isles from the main door, we caught a variety of pre filleted beauties... Good times man...good times
That's cheating! LOL
this help me a lot...now i'm ready to go to the wood again...Thank you for the tips👍
I chuckled at the curry powder. So British! Thank you for posting this video, it was very informative.
The sound of the skull cracking honestly made my jaw drop, but it is absolutely a humane way to do it, and I very much appreciate it. This entire video was a real treat, thank you!
This that straight back woods style living I PHUCKING LOVE IT MAN 👍🔥
lol the heart was still beating when you pulled it out.
Thanks grandpa. Always showing me new things
My husbands out fishing now. Watching this to prepare myself how to prep any catches.
Man, it sure has been a long time since I cleaned a fish. I guess I've become a little soft. Seeing you clean this fish made my stomach turn, especially seeing the heart still beating. But, then I remember how good fresh caught fish tastes.
It's like being taught by your Dad.
i love your show,
thank you so much
i'm a boy scout and i found this very helpful thanks
I love how the video about fish (the nature glimpses) was filmed on a fish eye lens
I love this channel just as I like your other one! I usually keep the white belly flesh and use it as lard instead of oil.
That's a beauty of a rainbow trout. My personal favorite.
You sir, are awesome, thank you for sharing!
I love it! How to turn a tiny little fly into a Gourmet Meal...lol.
This guy fishes and rocks a mustache like a boss!
This guy is effin awesome
I thoroughly enjoyed this video. It was informative and relaxing. I'd go fishing with ya anytime.
Gledam Vaše "stare" snimke, i super su...
I could definitely be great fishing buddies with this guy 👍
Thank you fishing grandpa. Im going fishing this weekend and no video is as detailed as this
Thank you! You make it look so easy 😁
I suppose it depends on where you are, but if in a real survival situation in the wilderness we have here you want the biggest fish you can get, and as many as you can get. What you don't eat immediately, you smoke for later use. You also save the guts to use as bait for catching more fish, and for trapping/snaring animals. You shouldn't waste a tiny bit of meat, or of guts. You never know when or whether you'll get more.
Not necessarily the biggest, but you will need a lot of em. Trout has 190 calories per 100g, so you need to eat about 1.75kg (3.85lbs) of fish meat to get 3000-3500 calories. Mackerel is better at 305 calories per 100g, so just over 1kg (2.2lbs) of meat to get the same calories. Some people might try for carp, but at only 127 calories per 100g you'll need to eat about 2.5kg (5.5lbs) of carp meat to get your daily calories. Perch is even worse at 117 calories per 100g. The best fish are the oily fish, mackerel, tuna, salmon etc.
In a real survival situation though, trying to live off fish (or any lean protein) is just slow starvation. You just cant eat enough of it to get the calories you need - even if you could catch it. If you actually want to live instead of slowly starve to death, finding a reliable source of fat and carbs is much more important than protein.
James Ritchie that's not fully true I would catch sun fish cause there not huge but its enough for one meal and left overs bass like so you can also fish for a bass
He's in the UK and no matter where we are here, if we walk for about an hour we'll find someone. This is not so much survival tips as "Catch a fish with a rod and reel, cook it on a stove and season to taste tips"
NICE ! A good video thanks . I feel the urge to start fishing!
+PUNK HIKER Thank you - get out there!!
Will do. Thanks.
+TA Outdoors thank you this tutorial has made me want to go fishing so much. And its taught me how to do everything i need to catch and eat a fish. Again thanks alot
+TA Outdoors could you please tell me where to get all my fishing stuff for a decent price. It would help alot
me too!
Excellent work. You have a new subscriber mate!
Amazing video! Keep up the good work!
I recently went on a scout camping trip and one kid was so looking forward to gut and cook a fish.
HEY!... :,0 I love you. I'm a fishing master now
5:19 That heart did a beat right there on his hand!!!
thank you very helpful i caught fish didn't know how to deal with it~
Thank u man this summer i want to go fishing now ik how to cook it
Thanks again. Really good stuff.
Instead of pulling the innards out after the first cut up the belly, if you stick the knife through so that it's parallel in between the tongue and the jaw and cut forward, you can then stick your finger in that slit and pull everything out in one go. It all stays together, then you just run your nail along the backbone to remove the blood and rinse it off
yup
By any chance, you got a vid? Lol
Kit Kat I wanted to see an example of this too!
Make a vid!!
That’s how my dad taught me too .
This was amazing! Thankyou :D
You are a pro! Well done. Thank you!
'You don't want a great big fish.' says the man. That IS a great big fish!
Terrific video, sir. I found the information both engaging and useful. You gained yourself a new follower.
I really like his passion for all this
Omg at the beginning, when he said that joke, I had the LATEST reaction to that 😭😭😂😂😂 lol
This guy is super charming. What fun to watch
thanks! just tried this method,but with whiting best I've ever eaten
This guy is just so nice. it's a great video also.
thank you so much for this video I know lots of fishing now keep up the good work :-)
What a champ. Thankyou sir!!
Thank you! This is great!
holy crap, the heart is still beating!!!!!
Now THIS is the video I was looking for
New to the channels. I see that the fruit doesn't fall far from the tree around here. Excellent channels. You both are very enjoyable to learn from. ;) I'm in! Well done.
Wonderful I hope to practice this soon !
Glad I watched this video! When I was a kid I used to fish with my step dad all the time. To kill the trout, normally he would have me Gollum smash it on a rock. I think I’ll use his method from now on
i enjoyed this video . thanks
Fantastic Graham 😁 my hat off too you sir
Great advice
been wanting to work on my survival skills considering I'd currently not be able to survive on my own, and I think it's quite useful to learn basics just incase. lesson one is finished :) next up, learn how the hell to make a basic waterproof shelter
Great - no nonsense. Its proper. Cheers
Now that i think of it fishing is so easy. Thx😃
I love this guy!
To everyone saying “The heart’s still pumping”, it’s normal to still be pumping after death, that’s how you know it’s fresh.
