John Kimble Posted January 19, 2009 Report Share Posted January 19, 2009 Check out the video at: http://ca.youtube.com/watch?v=pjTlFwQb7D0 Kept a dozen or so Perch for a fresh dinner and the rest were released to fight another day. Then we went after the whities and lakers and the rest was history!

Terry Posted January 19, 2009 Report Share Posted January 19, 2009 every cool saw it on another website but the ribcage remains, does it not Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Riparian Posted January 19, 2009 Report Share Posted January 19, 2009 (edited) The ribcage remains, but the point is there is no wasted meat. The meat can be pulled of the bones on the plate with your fork. Its a great way to diversify the way you cook perch. These bodies can be a part of a tray bake with veggies or broiled under a broiler. The body cavities can be stuffed with herbs and lemon and but on a screaming hot bbq.

holdfast Posted January 19, 2009 Report Share Posted January 19, 2009 You can just cut the rib cage out. I didnt think there was any other way to clean a perch. I spent hours watching the Americans clean perch that way on lake Champlain as a kid. If he would keep the Rib cage he would take a hard brush (plastic Bristles) and clean in the rib cage. Watched our neihbors do bucket fuls using a pen knife. You still got to be careful of the bones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greencoachdog Posted January 19, 2009 Report Share Posted January 19, 2009 That actually took 1 minute and not 10 seconds... and he needs to leave a patch of skin on that fish if he plans on transporting it! The spine and rib cage were still left in the fish, he just peeled out the dorsal fin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest gbfisher Posted January 19, 2009 Report Share Posted January 19, 2009 My kids wouldn't eat another fish if it had bones in it.. Come to think about it, neither would I. I realize some cultures spit undesirable food out while they eat and Thats OK!! ....I doubt my wife could get used to that.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Riparian Posted January 20, 2009 Report Share Posted January 20, 2009 You dont put the bones in your mouth, You take the meat off the bone with a fork. Sometimes I cook trout this way in the oven, but with the skin on. When you serve it you just take chunks of meat off and since the ribcage is still attached to the spine, it lifts off bone free.

Joey Posted January 20, 2009 Report Share Posted January 20, 2009 I just did two sunday filet sessions. I did it the way the second video shows. Took me about a minute a fish. Joey Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rattletrap2 Posted January 20, 2009 Report Share Posted January 20, 2009 When I used to catch fish, I did mine like Brian does in the second video! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ehg Posted January 20, 2009 Report Share Posted January 20, 2009 That actually took 1 minute and not 10 seconds... The complete boneless fillets in the second video, took only 5 seconds longer than that minute long dangerous first video method. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wallacio Posted January 20, 2009 Report Share Posted January 20, 2009 Here's another variation (which I prefer)...similar to the second video but you cut right through the rib cage, following the spine with your knife and then remove the rib bones after. I find that it's a bit easier than having to cut down along the rib bones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
