You are the first person with a video that knows how to really clean a catfish...not taking the dark meat out is why some people don't like catfish!🙂👍🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲

This man knows what he's doing. One of the best catfish cleaning video ever👍. He's a good ol' boy that doesn't fit the ethnic stereotype.

Nice video, thanks for showing how to get rid of the red meat. One thing we do here in Iowa, is, trim off the yellow fat also. Good video, thanks.

Thanks for the video. You're a champ. I shied away from catfish for years and years because when I would catch and clean them back when I was younger, they would have that off-putting taste to them. I knew I wasn't doing something correctly. Fast forward to the future and I now have my own lake that I stocked early last year. I added catfish because I wanted to have a fast growing fresh food source. I also have bass, bluegill and crappie but knew the catfish could be the big producer. The first couple of batches I filleted had that off taste to them once they got about 14 inches or longer. I just cut up my most recent stringer the way you've demonstrated and it all came out perfect. I didn't bleed the fish or do anything else but cut them the way you showed and then soaked them overnight in salt water. Much appreciated!

You are the man! I never tried it like that before. It work great! Thank you for thr tip and my God Bless!

This is exactly what I needed to know. Thanks for the video.

I clean mine the exact same way. Good video!

First person to see a person go through bot sides. Very smart

I don't cut as close the skin as you did the first time. I do get the the centerline red meat out the same you do. And the belly meat also.

Super video. Lots of great information. Thank you.

It's about time somebody showed how to cut up a catfish the right way I am tired of people saying catfish taste like mud bottom of a river..please

“Fillet” 🤣

Yes Sir, if you stay above the skin just a lil when you filet you won't have to trim it again👍🏻👊🏻

Thank you, awesome information !!!

Nice Video 👍🏾🎣

Channel cats taste amazing very under rated

That belly meat is my favourite

Geed job

Bleed that fish while it's alive and it will be even better. Nothing wrong with the belly meat, u can even fillet off the grey lining just like the skin. I also use an old towel like you so it doesn't slide around.

One of the best vids I've seen. And I am Pro.

Very nicely done!

Cut the yellow out of the channel cats too. It’s on top of the fillet

For even more white meat on your fish fillets, try bleeding out your catfish by cutting just above the back fin. Do it when you first catch them so their heart can pump out the blood.

thank you from murfreesboro tn...

Fillet is the way😂

You can bleed out other fish like Walleye, Bass, Crappie, and Trout by cutting under the fish's head between the gills or cut through both sides of the gills.

Does the red taste bad

Ty sir great video

You should bleed them before you leave the water

I thought I was hearing a cricket sound on my TV but it was coming from your posting😂

Like number 407👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

nice now you just need to tell him to get you some blue catfish instead of channels. the meat is so much whiter on a blue catfish channels have like a yellow tint to them.

What kind of table are you using?

Fillet

What bout the yellow on it.

The fat was the yellow strip at the top of the fillet.

I respect your technique but how I was brought up no section went to waste but the head the guts hell we even ate the fins

He threw away the best part

Did you mean fillet or fillay?😂😂😂

Fillet not fillay

Spelled fillet.

The way you clean the fish ur throwing to much away

belly meat on channel and blues are nasty. but on a flathead its prime

Fillay🤣🤣🤣🤦🏻‍♂️

"fillet" NOT FILLAY !! LOL

Somebody needs a “Refresher Course” on Spelling! 🤢

wasted too much meat

Filled not fillay

Fillet
