There is a way to cut out the small bones out of the back of buffalo when you are filleting. Also, if you're deep frying them whole, you can put many many slices across just the upper part from tail to head, which will make all of those bones go away.

Great video. Good advice about electricity *"failure"*. Gotta tip fer 'ya.... those old socks that aren't worth wearing anymore..., cut them into 2" band/sleeves and slide them over the outside of the jars before putting in canner. No more jars touching or rattling against one another, and they're reusable! I get about 4 sleeves from each sock. Heal portion is discarded (or goes in my gun cleaning kit). Never heard of the bromaline(?) trick before and I couldn't make out the name of that meat tenderizer you mentioned. I like to add a tablespoon of ketchup or tomato sauce in the jars. You'd be hard pressed to tell the difference between carp and salmon.

Unless the fish doesn't have as much meat, I prefer the bone in ribs. More meat and better flavor. I notice how 99% of KZfaq fishing videos throw away the carcass after filleting but I think some of the best meat is on the carcass and I fry the carcass and get it crispy or smoke it. People are missing out. In other countries they will completely split the whole fish carcass or butterfly it and grill or fry it whole. Thats where I learned and it was the best fish ever!!

Here in the NW, we get little ones like that we call "suckers", but I think the salmon eat them before they get that big ;-)

I have no idea why you don't hang that fish up to skin it.

@McGieHomesteadAdventures 2 ай бұрын
When you hang them up they can’t be filleted well at all….. the table allows you to get pressure on the backbone and get a close cut. In the air the fish is constantly moving and avoiding the pressure!

Well God bless you Michael you got some gloves on finally that's going to protect them mule skinners I've been wearing them for a long time I didn't like it it took me about 10 years to start liking them but it was just because I worked on government jobs that required me to wear on men my hands got used to wearing them and I liked them I'm tickled you're wearing the same thing I am but that don't mean you're a male scanner guess what buddy you're going to have to get a meal in order to be a meal Skinner lol

longbowbanjoAL Of that list I have eaten fox coyote armadillo and sauger. I don’t think it’s legal to kill flying squirrels and chipmunks ... which leaves mink and perch😂😂😂 we don’t have true perch in Tennessee..... people call bluegill perch here. Mink are here but not easy to find. I’m sur we can figure out something to do though 👍
