  • When it comes to processing a gummy shark correctly there are a few tricks of the trade and that starts literally the moment the fish hits the deck. Do it right and they are delicious, do it wrong and you waste a beautiful flake!
    If you keep shark please ensure its sustainable as many species are in dire straits!

    Thank you! Not a lot of videos actually showing the process from concerns of being demonetized.

    Genuine Question: Why not cut the fins off , when you took the head off?

    • @newy1960
      @newy1960 Год назад +1

      They are only trying to get rid of the blood and chemicals out of the shark while at sea (so shark doesn't spoil). The fins can be done later on land nice and calm.....

    • @newy1960
      @newy1960 Год назад +1

      But as a guy says above fins contain chemicals, so get rid of them as well....

      Absolutely. They all have that amonia smell if not cleaned as soon as caught.

    You should keep the head for berley

  • @MaZEEZaM

    I understand many cultures prize the fish cheeks, if you wanted them, is that something you would fillet off the head or if keeping the head, how would it be processed?

    Great info guys but you still can't beat a fillet of SA Mulloway. We call it Butterfish in our fish n chip shops .(Jewy in Eastern states)

      You can remove the head forward of the last gill slit and you can gut it. The rest must remain intact. The actual measurement for Gummy in VIC is 45cm from the last gill slit to the start of the tail.

    • @almcglashan
      @almcglashan  2 года назад +1

      No in vic it is carcass form so they can be ID and measured which is from the last gill to the tail which is a tiny gummy!

  • @MrDberrill
    @MrDberrill Год назад +1

    Guys I suggest you also cut those fins off straight away before you put your catch on ice. Reason is any mercury in the fish is in the fins and base of the fins, and gummy is fairly high in mercury, cheers.

    I think we call those smooth dogfish here. They have like sandpaper teeth if that's the same shark. They eat nothing but mollusk and shrimp.

    I cut the tail first then the head afterwards.

    The only thing wrong with this video is if you drop the blood of a gummy over the side 9 out of 10 times you won’t catch another so I do it into a bucket and dump it when I’m finished fishing

    Sorry to say but the audio was terrible, as the photography. The camera focused on the speaker and not the entire removal of the sharks head and entrails.

      If someone can't fillet a gummie shark after watching this you shouldn't have a knife in your hand.
