How To Fillet ALL The Meat From WALLEYE. (CHEEKS & WINGS?!)
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 12 сен 2024
- In this video we're going to teach you how to harvest every single piece of tasty white meat off the walleye. When you're filleting a walleye most anglers will just take both sides of the walleye the main portions of the meat. In this video we're going to show you how to take the parts of the fish that you're missing out on! The walleye wings and cheeks are delicious!! The cheeks of the walleye are tasty little morsels, a lot like scallops. While a lot of folks take the cheeks, how many of you take the wings? The wings are the pair of bottom fins below and behind the gills. The piece of meat that resides there is maybe a little larger than the cheeks. Leave the fins and skin intact. Rinse them well, batter up, salt pepper, and deep fry. To eat the walleye wings, hold the fins in each hand, fins pointing outward, and downward, so the actual skin of he fish is against your top teeth. Bring your lowers up into contact with the meat, and gently pull on the fins and that little bite slides right off the cartilage. Its pretty damn tasty!

Damn my face looks like a ripe strawberry... HAHA!
is that Ft Spokane? looks like Two rivers or Porcupine bay Ft spokane area.
J Rod nailed it. Great filet job. I use the cordless electric knife and cut right through the rib bones, then follow back to filet out the ribs. Much faster when you have a lot of fish to filet.
That is exactly how we are taught to do it up here. Man these look amazing.. mouth is watering
Walleye cheeks been comin off for years. The zippering thing nd the wings I'm going to start applying. Great vid!
Good for you, fellas. There is no better way to appreciate your fish than to utilize every bit of it. You can also give the outside of the heads a really good scrubbing, then make fish stock. Peppercorns, bay leaves, pinch of mace, and some aromatics. Cut the heads down the center, keep the heat low, and don't simmer too long. Lovely stock for chowders, soups, and stews.
That is so cool , I’ve never “zippered” a walleye like that and I still think they are the finest eating fresh water fish. Will definitely try this next time . Thanks for the great content as always.
Hi bro im from Indonesian 🤝
Thanks for share fillet fish
Great vid! Learned something
Mmm mmm! Super tasty fish! Can’t wait for some night fishing soon!
Another good hack is to have a teaspoon and a tablespoon with you that hast the outer edges sharpened up a bit. A great tool for scooping out cheeks! Great video!
I just learned how to zipper walleyes thanks to JRod.
He is swallowing his saliva when he is talking about those meat.😂
this is awesome! thanks marlin for making this happen! I'm still new to fishing for salmon/steelhead, so this opens up another door for me as well. keep it up man.
Awesome fillet job - learned a lot ! Thank you.
Awesome, thanks for the informative videos. Tight lines guys.
That's my boy Jrod showing the westies how us dessert boys do it! TJ showed me the cheeks but Jrod put me on the wings. CR gold bars for the win!
Minnesota checking in, fresh water scallops confirmed.
Thanks for the tips
I Smash the Thumps Up as soon as the video starts cause I know its going to be good
🙌🙌
The cheeks are my fav part of a walleye.
I tend to scale the belly's on the walleye and leave the meat below the ribs on the collar. Gives you a great piece if you ever throw it on the grill.
Just caught a walleye, I’m gunna try this right now 😍
i learned so much
Thank you for this video!
What you are calling the bloodline is actually the kidney of the fish. That is why that bloodline has such a strong fish flavor. If ever you go albacore tuna fishing you will know how critical it is to get the kidney out. But I hold this true for all the fish I keep. Get rid of the kidney on all your fish and the fish will have a much better flavor. This is also why when you clean a salmon or trout you want to get down on that backbone and remove all that bloody mess. that is the kidney. My dad owned a fish cannery on the Oregon coast and I have cleaned tons of tuna and salmon. If you do not get the kidney out the fish will pick up that strong flavor that J Rod mentioned. I also skippered some of dad's commercial salmon and tuna boats. If I did not get the kidney out of the fish before the fish went into the hold on ice dad would not buy the fish; even though it was his own boat that caught the fish and he would not make as much money on the sale of the fish to another cannery. That used to upset me as I was paid on a percentage of the catch. So if dad's cannery paid me 2 cents on the pound more for the fish and I was selling a ton of salmon that was money out of my pocket. Fortunately the tuna was processed at the cannery. All I had to do was bleed it and get it on ice very quickly and he would buy it.
Oh nice I'll have to try that
Always save the cheeks!
Dang, watching this video I was thinking that I am going to have get a couple days charting with everyone that gives demos on here. Which will be as epic your AK videos. When I leave AK and visit the NW again. Thank again for an amazing video
I noticed the double mats on his boat! I would totally charter with J Rod since I would assume he plans to catch big fish, like salmon or halibut in SE Ak
Good video, I do mine a bit different. Think I ran into you at the launch. You told me to fish plugs? Lady on the side of the boat? Took me a while, but got into them.
Old guy with the yellow lab. Duck in the anchor spool.
Awesome video guys!!!
#nowaste...l try to use as much of my salmon and steelhead as possible. I'll cut out the collar meat, the belly meat, and get whatever is left off the backbone. I add it to chowder, scrambled eggs, pasta, you name it. You're respecting the fish by not wasting it. I've never had walleye. Want to go try it.
Muy buen trabajo también 👌👌👍
Hmmm sure looks good 😋
That mat might be the answer to filleting snakehead. They are as slippery as an eel But no bloodline
Are they good?
I highly recommend getting an electric filet knife. As a charter captain on lake Erie who as cleaned thousands of walleye. It's definitely the way to go.
100% agree
U should have taken the eyes out to fry them not going to lie it tastes really good
I only wish to be truly complete, that you would post a "fish taco" recipe..seriously
is J Rod going to do a catch and cook?
We may or may not have done a catch & cook with these fish! 😉
Cheeks are my favorite part of a sauger saugeye or walleye
I have always wanted to compare lingcod and walleye. How about an Addicted taste test challenge? I think they should be about the same size to make it fair. Lingcod is my favorite fish to fry but I no longer have the boat for that kind of fishing. I do have a small sled though and walleye is an option.
If you see my post above you will know that I grew up on the ocean. My wife's favorite fish was lingcod until she tasted a walleye. Now I believe she favors walleye over the ling. Greenlings were also a big hit for her. But she did not like the color of the flesh until it was cooked so she would only eat it if she did not see it before it came out of the pan.
Aside from soup n tossing it back in the water, u can bury the scraps in ur garden and feed it to ur vegetables.
Cool stuff guys
Do those mats work. Good for panfish? I've filleted over a hundred bluegill in the last week. Newspaper works but. It sucks
The mats work amazing for panfish! Just a little downward pressure and they stick like glue.
The mats are awesome! You will love them.
You need to save those tails and fry them too! Fin Chips
I had poor poor walleye season thus fare hopefully I can find a sweet spot soon
Always do this
What is your favorite way to fish for steelheads
Floats or Spoons!
Great video.
Do walleye have a little swampy smell to them or is it just the lake I catch them at?
No they don’t smell like swamp here.
What is the limit on walleye?
Check your local waters' laws . Quick Google search says no size or limit on rivers. 12" min on ponds, reservoirs and lakes, no more than 1 22" fish per 8 fish limit. (In WA)
Ever save the back bones? Whack the head off, bread, and fry whole if too big for pan cut in half. That way you get meat between the bones.
When you guys come back to SE Ak where do you plan on goin?
Not sure yet!
Addicted Fishing I live on POW and I had a pretty good winter and spring season of steelheading. The break corona gave me from school let me focus on swinging flies for steelhead and nymphing for them. Counting down the days til next steelhead season!
From what I understand you guy are manly base around the north west (Washington and Oregon) I live in Vancouver WA (above Portland) have you guys fished there and if so had you had any issues with anti fishing people (videos of them keep popping up for me on RUclips) I had not had the chance to fish for at least 6 years and once this stay at home is over I am getting my license and I’ll fish ASAP. Just knowing the kinds of people around the city I live I sometimes wonder how many of them are peta followers are anything similar.
I would of asked on Twitter but I deleted my account (can’t handle the people on there) so this was my only option.
No issues ever.
Addicted Fishing awesome. I can’t wait to fish again
Yum 🤤
What about the " tongue " ? (it's not actually the tongue but it looks like one)
Lol filleting is soooo hard to explain. It's a technique you have to definitely show and do to get the idea.
Cheeks are stringy like chicken. Crazy how different they are.
No I don't take anything else. I don't cut the mud out though. But I did learn something today, I have never been taught how to or what to do with any fish I have learned myself before RUclips and this information, that the mud is what makes it fishy. I never figured that out.
Did show how to get the skin off the wings?? That's all I cared about for this whole video was to get the skin off the wings
Most people leave it on.
@@AddictedFishing nah I figured but out just caught a couple in the same spot y'all were at and tried it and figured it out
Rip Monetisation
The hide
You should try sharpening your knife lol 😂 That was terrible
Most overrated fish ever taste wise
All fish taste nasty. ALL OF THEM.
I only showed up to be a huge prick and correct someone. It isn't pelvic, but pectoral at 1:34.... I know, I hate myself too. I am sorry for being the guy
