Here you'll find all collections you've created before.
Couple of things:
1) Did you soak the fillets or do anything aside from rinsing them after you finished skinning?
2) Could you use skinning pliers to peel the skin then fillet, or does the skin not hold up well enough?
3) Did you record gross/net meat volume. To clarify, what was your total fish weight before fillet, and what was your weight in fillets. I understand that most fish have an excellent feed conversion ratio (1 lb of food gets 1 lb of fish) but how many pounds of fillet is that?
4) Any plans on how to use the fish waste? I thought about turning it into a pulp more or less with a food grinder and using it for garden fertilizer, or a fresh chicken feed. I believe that adult tilapia tend to be more herbivorous compared to the omnivorous juveniles. I've speculated making a fish pulp, then drying and crumbling for fish food. It would be great to have minimal waste this way but not sure of the nutrient quality you'd have in the food product.
Cool!
Start to finish. Great video!
Nice procedure!
Nice job!
thank you for this information.
Great video, very informational!
do you gut them?
شكراً Thanks
Do you sell the female and the male that maiding too and how much
What do you do with the rest of the fish body? http://www.JesusReallyDoesLoveYou.com
Hi; New subscriber, I like you videos. What is the yield in oz. of fillets per oz. of live / whole fish? Does a 2 lb fish yield an average of 1 lb. of fillet?
The way you filet them wastes meat along the bones. I'm not judging, when you have a lot of fish to filet, I imagine it gets very tiresome. Your way is More efficient from Time-for-Meat perspective. If I really wanted all the meat possible, I would behead, gut, and boil/bake it whole.
Exactly how my father taught me to fillet. Nice!
How long does it take for them to get that big.
What is the brand and model of the food saver?
what do you do with the leftover ? i'm looking for a solution to not having to put it in the trash …
great video man thanks
Dude your awesome!!! Haha i finnally caught my own fish the other day but i put em back! . this time im gonna fillet them
Whole grilled tilapia taste awesome, you should try it some time. Just gut and scale the fish, season to your liking and wrap in foil than grill for about 15 min.
