Excellent video.I'm an advid fisherman salt and freshwater here in the united states ( philadelphia .pa ) and this by far one of the best videos on explaning how to fillet fish especially flounder ,lemon sole .
- Thats how you can tell a pro at work isn’t it. Even the complicated looks effortless. Rich really was brilliant. I hope the video helps folks out. 😊👍🏻🐟
@@OllieW501 - I have been trying to work out how to do this video for a while. Getting Rich to help was what made it what it is. He did a fantastic job and really was a marvel to observe. 😊👍🏻🐟🔪
Watching Rich in his element was fascinating and informative. Also, oddly relaxing. I don't think it matters what it is, watching a master work at their craft seems to bring the blood pressure down a few points. Thanks for sharing, John!
I could watch your foraging and cooking videos for days nonstop. I learn so much. most peoples out there, especially those living at heartland, have absolutely no clue how many sorts of clams, mussels, lobsters and cockles one can eat. even less how many sorts of kelp and seaweed you can eat.
That is the best fish filleting Programme/Video that I have ever seen, You associate is very skilful and certainly knows his stuff, Thanks to you John for sharing this video, I always look forward to my Weekly visit to Cornwall via the Fish Locker Channel. Cheers from Ian up North .
- Thank you very much Ian. Rich really was fantastic wasn’t he. Truly watching a master at work. I hope the video helps folks out and have a good one mate. 😊👍🏻🐟
I'm so lucky to have Seabourne on the doorstep, I go there weekly for my families fish. Always fresh and tasty, and like that they keep sustainability in mind.
It's a pleasure watching an expert in his trade. He does an excellent job explaining his process. Good job filming the video and production. You're fortunate you have an expert willing to share his craft. Thank him for us viewers.
I personally think that this video is great! Absolutely gives people knowledge and confidence on how to process a fish they have caught or bought. Thanks john 👍
I've been filleting fish for a living for 12 years (that's all I do all day every day, I don't sell, buy, or pack fish just fillet) I would say that this video is great for people who want to process their own catch. I do things slightly differently but that because I get paid by the kilogram. Top vid 👌
That is exactly what I hoped when making this video. To help people make the most of their catch and help them to not be intimidated by the prospect of preparing their own food. What knife do you use if you don’t mind me asking? 😊👍🏻
Well i'm 3 months behind watching this video but i'm really glad i've seen i now. i have been filleting fish for many a year and have been doing wrong the whole time. That was an amazing masterclass from Richard please give him my thanks. I just hope i can put his skills to the test this year. Thanks John.
Worked on a commercial boat many moons ago and was always told when filleting fish "if you can read the newspaper through the carcass when you're done, you did a good job". Some great skill on display here, thanks for sharing
Oh, I enjoyed that. His end game was a fillet, but he has had to learn the anatomy of these animals to do that. A pleasure to watch someone who has their trade down pat.
Probably the best filleting video I’ve ever watched! Watched a fair few and this is by far the most informative and detailed. Well worth the watch. If only I could catch something to fillet 🤣🤣🤣
@@broonball whet stone is best....there is a review of different sharpening techniques/items on "outdoor chef life"....from cheap to expensive....here is one ruclips.net/video/3tyajZYWtuY/видео.html and another ruclips.net/video/_yCtrdTfFrM/видео.html
Thar was a brilliant video for the novice cook to follow and more important to keep for reference. The demonstrator was clear on instruction and ok he made it look easy but as he said with practice you would speed up. You could not have made it clearer what the content of this video was about so I'm pleased at this stage you only have one dislike and 452 likes, to me it shows what a worthwhile post this was and I thank you for it
- Thank you David. I have been planning a video like this for a long while. Rich really was brilliant. I truly hope that this video helps people out. Best wishes to you and your family mate and take care. 😊👍🏻🐟
- Rich and I are the same in that respect. Simple, honest and no drama. We simply like to share what we know and are passionate about. I am glad that you enjoyed the video. 😊
- Thats it mate. It just takes the right teacher and everything is simple. If you think any of your mates would benefit from the video - please share it on to them. 😊👍🏻🐟
I loved this segment John. Whenever I watch one of your posts I always learn something. I was really impressed with the butterflying of the Mackerel. I have never seen that before. Gonna have to try that one myself when Summer comes back and I can find whole Mackerel. Once again, nice job son!!!.
- That is wonderful to here Greg, that is what we hope when making these videos. Butterflied mackerel are great, tricky to do right but a wonderful way to do them. 😊
1st class video. Thank you. Best fillet video I've watched. Well explained and very informative. Thanks too to, I think you said his name was Rich. Always enjoy your videos. Stay safe, and I look forward to the next one. 👍👏👌
This video is wonderful! I was literally speaking to my mother yesterday about how I want to learn how to fillet fish this coming year, and this video is perfect. Come spring, I'll be learning to fish, thanks to your channel, and I know I will have to confidence to be able to cook them as well! I appreciate your questions about freezing and stock also. Always looking forward to more videos!
No one on you tube has shown this what you are sharing. Always enlightening..thank you..now that I am retired,I am learning things I otherwise didn’t have time for.
Always good to pick up a few tips from someone who does this sort of thing day in and day out. I had a tour of a large fish processing plant and watching the cutters slash their way through cod with a few quick slices was both impressive and scary to watch... too fast to see just what they were doing really. Here you get the full step by step explanation.
Has to be one of your best vlogs, absolutely brilliant. A while a go as Head chef I had a surprise delevery of 50 fresh mackerel, after lunch service i gutted & butterflyed them all for lunch the next day. Very successful but a lot of work. I also use Victor Inox knives, they are the same company that make the Swiss army knife by the way.
- Thank you Simon. I truly hope this video helps folks out. They are brilliant working knives aren’t they. Take care and have a wonderful day mate. 😊👍🏻🐟
@@TheFishLocker The Wife had a Victorinox kitchen knife when I first knew her and it was hopeless. I think she had been using it for some time on her old glass chopping boards. I eventually had chance to put it through an electric knife sharpener, and now it is my go-to knife, and just needs the occasional touch with a steel to keep its edge.
Great video John, Your man was spot on.I used to land my mackerel to Jackie Seabourne back in the seventies and before I moved to Falmouth I did a stint as a mobile fishmonger working out of Mevagissey and filleted thousands like those.Once again ,great video,keep up the good work.
This was really informative and this guy is a real expert in his job. Very interesting to see this done by a pro, he made this look so easy. I reckon the stuff that goes in his bin would keep your crab pots baited for months !.
Excellent very informative your films share knowledge and life skills that a lot of people will never have had the chance to aquire kids don't have many people showing them these things nowadays . Keep up the great work .
- Thank you Brian. I really appreciate what you are saying and feel that way too. Like the video on how to make a crab pot or sew a net. These are dying skills. Hopefully we may be able to keep them alive. 😊
- It is our pleasure Oliver. People have been asking me for this type of video for a long time. It has just taken me a while to figure out how to do it properly. Please share it on to anyone who you think it may help. 😊👍🏻🐟🔪
Taking the scales of Bass underwater BRILLIANT! Why Oh what didn't I think of that. Wonderfully educating film that John. top marks again for giving us RUclipsrs that bit extra.

I can fillet round fish OK, but I have to say after watching such an expert at work, I am enlightened to what I have seen on this educational video where I'm doing it wrong, especially on the flattish. Thankyou for uploading a very welcome video.
Will give mackerel butterfly a go next time we do a bbq beach cook up in Wales. Have only done them whole before and the kids are fussy of course , awesome video John
Thank you John for taking time and visit Rich. The lesson how to filleting fish is amazing. Well explained and demonstrated. Thank you for sharing. Take care
My honest thoughts... Despite knowing how to do all this.. It was just so therapeutic to watch and if people like amsr... The noise of the knife running along the bones and sounds of the fish was quite nice 👍🏼🎣
The few times I've filleted my catch that was my problem! doing the short cuts and not long sweeping cuts, thanks I've learnt a lot from that fishmonger? Stay safe John and family from BIGMICK IN HULL.
- Thats why we made the video mate. I am glad that you found it helpful. Please share it on to any of your mates who you think would benefit from the video. 😊🐟😉
That was excellent thanks John... Brought back some great memories of working up Byres Rd in Glasgow in Allan Beverage's shop in the 80's :-) I served my time in Geo Campbell & Son 18 Stafford St Edinburgh in the early 70's. Cheers mate B-)
- Thanks mate. It is our pleasure. Please if you think any of your mates would enjoy and benefit from the video, share it on. Take care and have a great day. 😊👍🏻🐟
And if I may recommend Annie Sibert’s cooking classes for fish / crab and lobster - you should definitely take some of her lessons if you live in the Cornwall area or otherwise.
Ps, if you have too many mackerel, I reccomend a pate, wonderful, or mackerel tatar served on buttered sour dough toast, life will taste better with these treats.
@@geordiejones2 miso soup is fermented and delicious! Just One Cookbook is a great website all about Japanese cooking and you can find lots of miso soup recipes on that site.
@@TheFishLocker My mate said that Gurnard is the best fish he has ever cooked/eaten. He invited us to come over for Fish & chips one night when he had finished house renovations, and then Covid19 happened. 🙄🙄
Fantastic informative & interesting video John. I've done a little bit of filleting and have picked up a few tips from you & others in the past, but that was great to get some professional tips and see an expert at work! They are just so accurate and fast when you watch them at work. Re freezing fish (or fresh meat), I can't get on with that annoying cling film stuff(!), so I bought a vacuum sealer & bags from one of the German supermarkets a couple of years ago, and it has been fantastic for anything that is prone to freezer burn after storage at -18 degrees! Thanks mate - stay safe & well. 👍👍
- That is exactly why I have made this video Terry. I picked the main U.K. species that people catch and like to eat. Please share it on if you think any of your fishing mates could benefit from the vid. 👍🏻🐟
- I honestly feel that this video could help many anglers and fish eaters. Please share it on to anyone who you think will enjoy it. 😊👍🏻🐟
Helped me!
I like the removing fish scale tool
Well, as one who has butchered a few fillets so far 😆 I found this kind of video very helpful. Thanks for posting John 😉

I can fillet round fish OK, but I have to say after watching such an expert at work, I am enlightened to what I have seen on this educational video where I'm doing it wrong, especially on the flattish.
Thankyou for uploading a very welcome video.
I hope the videos are helpful to folks.
Will give mackerel butterfly a go next time we do a bbq beach cook up in Wales. Have only done them whole before and the kids are fussy of course , awesome video John
- If you can get it right it is fantastic. 😊
Well done John, fabulous video learned a lot you are one in a million thanks a lot
- We are just trying to help. 😊
What a video glad I done the pole on Instagram so much I've learnt in 40mins
- The majority have spoken. I asked the same question of the RUclips community. Out of near 6,000 people. 96% voted yes. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

Now that was a bloomin good video sir....thank you both👌
- Our pleasure Lee 😊
Such quality mate love the time stamps
- I hope the video helps folks out. 😊👍🏻🐟
Thank you John for taking time and visit Rich. The lesson how to filleting fish is amazing. Well explained and demonstrated. Thank you for sharing. Take care
Rich is a master isn’t he. I hope the video helps folks out. 😊👍🏻
My honest thoughts... Despite knowing how to do all this..
It was just so therapeutic to watch and if people like amsr... The noise of the knife running along the bones and sounds of the fish was quite nice 👍🏼🎣
- Thats it mate, it is great watching a pro work isn’t it. But even though I’ve been doing it a while I still learned loads. 👍🏻🐟
ONE OF THE BEST INSTRUCTIONAL VIDEOS AROUND
Love these vids
- I am glad to hear it. 😊👍🏻
Cracking masterclass. Truly is one of the best filleting tutorials I've seen
- Thank you very much. Rich did a fantastic job didn't he. 😊
The few times I've filleted my catch that was my problem! doing the short cuts and not long sweeping cuts, thanks I've learnt a lot from that fishmonger? Stay safe John and family from BIGMICK IN HULL.
- Thats why we made the video mate. I am glad that you found it helpful. Please share it on to any of your mates who you think would benefit from the video. 😊🐟😉
That was excellent thanks John... Brought back some great memories of working up Byres Rd in Glasgow in Allan Beverage's shop in the 80's :-) I served my time in Geo Campbell & Son 18 Stafford St Edinburgh in the early 70's. Cheers mate B-)
- Thanks mate. It is our pleasure. Please if you think any of your mates would enjoy and benefit from the video, share it on. Take care and have a great day. 😊👍🏻🐟
And if I may recommend Annie Sibert’s cooking classes for fish / crab and lobster - you should definitely take some of her lessons if you live in the Cornwall area or otherwise.
- I am fortunate enough to have a profession chef as a father in law. 😊
That was a great episode. It really is a pleasure to watch those guys work. Thanks John.
- They do have a great team there. I am glad you enjoyed the video. 😊
Ps, if you have too many mackerel, I reccomend a pate, wonderful, or mackerel tatar served on buttered sour dough toast, life will taste better with these treats.
- 😉👍🏻
I live and fish in Florida, love absorbing technique from across the big pond. Thank you for your content.
- That is wonderful. I also love to learn. Take care and have a great day. 😊👍🏻🐟
Brilliant stuff!
- Glad you enjoyed it Martin. I hope it helps folks out. :)
Thank you, Rich. And to you too John, what a great idea to show this amazing skill which has inspired a little confidence in the kitchen 👍🏼
Grilled mackerel + bowl of sticky rice = my favorite meal
- 😊🐟
@@geordiejones2 Very traditional japanese breakast, with miso soup on the side!
@@geordiejones2 miso soup is fermented and delicious! Just One Cookbook is a great website all about Japanese cooking and you can find lots of miso soup recipes on that site.
Great stuff Rich excellent as usual John keep her lit
- Take care mate. 😊
I don't think I've ever eaten gurnard, but I'm VERY partial to plaice. A solid specimen with fries and béarnaise will do me!
- Gurnard is a really nice meaty fish. If you get the chance I would try it. 😊🐟🍽
@@TheFishLocker My mate said that Gurnard is the best fish he has ever cooked/eaten. He invited us to come over for Fish & chips one night when he had finished house renovations, and then Covid19 happened. 🙄🙄
All rock fishes are tasty, especially just boiled with salt. You can use the head and spine to do a great soup aswell if you have filleted it.
Here in Australia, Gurnard is called Latchet and believe me its sensational! Very sweet, done in batter - beautiful!
@@patrickellaby Here in Belgium (and possibly the Netherlands) it's called Knorhaan! Actually not hard to find in the fish shops over here.
This was not a video, this was a wonderful class! 👍👏👍👏👍👏👍👏👍👏
- I am glad that you enjoyed it Billy. I hope that people find the video helpful. 😊
I will definitely watch that again and buy the knife he recommends.
It’s a victorinox fibrox 8 inch filleting knife, they do a 7inch aswell. Either are great knives.
- As Rich says. 👍🏻😊🔪
@@TheFishLocker Somebody at Victorinox is going to be wonderering why they have just had a sales spike
@@stubbyseventhree2963 - Haha. I should have bought a load and posted a link. 🤦🏻♂️
Always love seeing a master butcher or fishmonger at work, great to see the skill and care that goes into making a nice fillet for us to take home!
It truly is pleasing to watch a master at work isn't it. 😊
All that skill performed with a £16 knife , awesome
- Just goes to show doesn't it. I think that is why Rich and I get on so well, simple, no drama and cuts through the nonsense.
Fantastic informative & interesting video John. I've done a little bit of filleting and have picked up a few tips from you & others in the past, but that was great to get some professional tips and see an expert at work! They are just so accurate and fast when you watch them at work. Re freezing fish (or fresh meat), I can't get on with that annoying cling film stuff(!), so I bought a vacuum sealer & bags from one of the German supermarkets a couple of years ago, and it has been fantastic for anything that is prone to freezer burn after storage at -18 degrees! Thanks mate - stay safe & well. 👍👍
- Vac packing is 100% isn’t it. So good and simple.
People always laugh at me when i say I cant fillet the fish I catch.
Time to boil the kettle and learn
Cheers fishlocker gang
- That is exactly why I have made this video Terry. I picked the main U.K. species that people catch and like to eat. Please share it on if you think any of your fishing mates could benefit from the vid. 👍🏻🐟
@@TheFishLocker will do mate thanks and stay safe
@@EasterlyWind I never filet my fish because I feel that I get more taste out of the fish that way. Fileting once cooked is a breathe.
