    I was on a head boat down near Fort Jefferson, Dry Tortugas. We were fishing a wreck at night in 70 feet of water. I caught so many Blackfin tuna I got tired of catching them. I think I brought 10 or 11 home. Had a killer Super Bowl party with the sashimi! Nice video, thanks for sharing.

    If you've never had fresh kill tuna raw like this, you don't know what living is.

    I have seen a lot of videos for filleting fish but your way is unique and very easy to do !! Most quarter the fish, then skin each piece..................great video !!!

    I have fillet a million fish. But never a tuna. Thanks for the post. I did dover, rex, black cod, red cod, flounder, salmon and trout and probably some that I can't remember. I got paid by the pound and wow, did I get fast! In 1982 I made $18.10 an hour. That's the fishing industry. Big cash for hard, disgusting, filthy work. My best day ever was with black cod. I must have cut up a billion pounds. Well, that is what it felt like... It was a good day. Let's say that. I made a good paycheck!

    Pro tip, make your initial cuts on BOTH sides of a fish before you take 1 whole side off. Makes it much easier to get the second side off and you miss less meat.

      You've clearly never caught Tuna. Or any fish for that matter. There will always be small pools of blood in the organs, because it's not pumped out easy. If it weren't bled, especially a tuna, it would be way more bloody. I suggest you don't talk shit if you don't have the slightest clue of what you're talking about

    What is the calculated mercury content of a tuna of this size? I use to love to eat sea foods but now days no one can give a definitive answer as to what's safe to eat and how much is safe to eat. Instead they'll dish out the gloom and doom answers in an attempt to scare folks away from eating fish all together.
    It's hard to tell if it's just real science preaching the real dangers of mercury poisoning or if it's the greenies trying to spare the fish's feelings.

      We don't have tuna fish swimming in our lakes and streams here in Az. According to the Game and Fish department, the fish we do have here should not be eaten more than twice a week; or something to that effect.
      Those same recommendations state that larger sea faring fish like tuna, sword fish, etc. contain even larger amounts of mercury than our local lake and river fish do.
      I wish they were wrong about it because I do miss eating the fish I use to catch.

  • @brycediamond
    @brycediamond 7 лет назад +3

    Cool vid but you may want to mention concerns about parasites. You need to be flash freezing the meat if you are going to eat it raw or filleting the fish immediately after catching it (this still has a small amount of risk)

    i thought skip jack was a wormy meat, that's why it's never on the menu. i live at wrightsville beach for about 8 years and that's what every fisherman i ever talked to told me. they are fun to catch, but they aren't fit to eat. i sure wouldn't eat any of it raw and I love sashimi. I may have been told wrong or I may be mistaken about the which fish it actually is, but I don't think all those old fishermen were telling me fishing tales. lol
