I have had the pleasure of seeing Russ McKay fillet a walleye first hand and he is faster then what you see on this video. I have also had the pleasure of spending many days on the water with him guiding me fishing for trophy Northern Pike, Walleye and Lake Trout. He is the best guide I have ever had the pleasure to fish with. He is a gentleman in every sense of the word.
I ordered two of these based on the reviews. ruclips.net/user/postUgkxqmKabisEv81ul5v7OhvVxxOpt2CJruI- Received them on time and they look good. I really like the handle on these knives as they feel good in my hand. I'm giving them 4 stars on look and feel, but have not had the chance to put them to the test yet. I mostly fish for catfish and can hopefully try them out in the next few days. If they hold an edge throughout a limit of catfish, they'll be worth another star.Update...I used the 9" strong and the 9" fillet on a mess of catfish. I did put a sharpening on these before I started. I want a razor edge to fillet fish but they weren't quite that sharp. The people who gave these knives crappy reviews and said they were sending them back was because they weren't razor sharp. So what, do they not have a knife sharpener?? Good grief! I mean you have to sharpen any knife from time to time.I personally like them and am pleased with them. If you're too lazy to sharpen a knife then hire someone to clean your fish lol.I've never bought a knife in my life that would shave hair right out of the box. Don't be afraid to purchase the knives. They're pretty nice in my opinion.
I use this technique on most species now especially perch. During the winter I may bring home as many as 50 from one outing and it really cuts down on cleaning time!
this method never worked for me when it comes to doing the second side,id always end up breaking off the head or spinal bone when trying to cut through the rib cage the second time and have nothing to hold on to when trying to get the second fillet off, specially when they are not jumbos they break easily
( dead in ) & ( dead out ) , very very fast , how many time's do we need to see him over & over - is there a slow motion video ? the man next to him almost left the location...!!!!
My dude threw away the cheeks, the friggin best part. And bud, you can zipper the spine and y bones with a few more seconds of time per fish. He might be the fastest but that don’t make em the best
Everybody knows how hard it is to get the stink of slime off your hands so why the heck do your flop your skinned fillet into the goop on the table? Its just as easy and certainly cleaner to lay a skinned fillet onto a clean plate.
Looks easier than it is..I almost wasted a fish trying to do it this way instead of the 'canadian method' that I always use (not cutting rib bones off with fillet) thought my knives were sharp..maybe not sharp enough :/
Chris C Could you not cut through the ribs, or did you have an issue tearing the ribs out? I find walleye over 5 or 6 pounds tend to have pretty big ribs, and tend to use the thick end of the knife to get through, rather than the tip or midsection. If its a tearing issue, try and keep a more horizontal cut when trimming out the ribs, and cut all the way to the end of the ribs, (following tightly horizontal on the underside). Should end up with just a thin strip of rib bones with very little meat on them. It should also be noted that the tearing, as it is unnecessary, is for speed purposes. This guy can deal with more walleye in a night, than most of us could eat in a year
weres ur video ryanjohnson6688 u say ur the best lets see it u have no videos on ur page so u must be all talk if ur so good at cleaning a walleye lets SEE UR VIDEO u say ur going to make

Dead fisher could you send me the northern cleaning video with Russ macay? Darrel was interviewing him
WOW! Wish I could do that!
all the other walleye cleaning videos should basically be deleted after watching this one
Yes they should. He is the best there is. I once saw him clean a wallet in 25 secs
@@ericwanke9284 I hope it was not your wallet.
@@h2000l lol right !! just fillet that money right out of the leather
NICE!!!!
Real Profi!

You are throwing the cheeks away ? What? Are you Canadian ?
Dave Knowl yep he is Canadian
My dude threw away the cheeks, the friggin best part. And bud, you can zipper the spine and y bones with a few more seconds of time per fish. He might be the fastest but that don’t make em the best
Zippering wastes good meat
25 sec

HitchinHobo He does more in a week then people do in their entire life
What’s crazy is this vid has 140k views and not even 400 likes.. tsk tsk
cut it short and did not show how he removed the pin bones
wheres the pike vid? post link
@crosman177 ruclips.net/video/YBFrQ5KMIs8/видео.html
@@h2000l thank you - 8 years later 😊👍🏻
Could I also get the link to the pike video or is it gone?
but really have you ever seen anybody clean a walleye that fast?......repeat.....repeat....
This is not a video you want to watch if you were going to learn how to clean a walleye. I don't explain anything.
theres a difference between fast and wreckless, no need to almost lose a finger smh
You do not need to fillet walleye and avoid wasting great meat !!!!
you haven't seen a native american clean walleye. any response to this comment I'll put up a video.
I want to see
Your native american is eating dunkin donuts...they dont clean fish anymore....
Still waiting on that vid :))
clown
He was very slow in this video. I once timed him doing a walleye in 25secs
@First Last I have known Russ for years, I have never had any bones in a fish he has filed and I have watched him in person do a walleye in 27 secs.
but really have you ever seen anybody clean a walleye that fast?......repeat.....repeat.......repeat...
how the fuck?
weres ur video ryanjohnson6688 u say ur the best lets see it u have no videos on ur page so u must be all talk if ur so good at cleaning a walleye lets SEE UR VIDEO u say ur going to make
Cronzy please come back to TV these new shows are horrible. 1% fun 99% advertisment, 100% generic and interchangeable.
Cleaning quick and wasting meat from the ribs,cheeks and dorsal area. Hmm? Anybody can do that. Now show the proper way.
Does your video show the right way?
Trust me other then the cheeks you are not getting anything else off his carcasses.
He could cut out the wings too
