  • A very simple way of scaling. filleting and deboning any fish. In this case, I used fresh Yellowfin Whiting. Part 2 will show you how to make one of the simplest yet most effective beer batters!

    Haha, I've never seen a fish scaled like that. Hilarious!
    If you want a great scaler when you don't have the hose handy, get 3 beer lids and nail them in line, to a bit of broom handle and you'll have a fantastic scaler.

    I enjoyed watching that, keep up the good work. You might want to consider an angled cut instead of straight across to capture all of the meat behind the head.

    What's the correct procedure for dispatching these little guys?

    i'm from the UK and really enjoy carp fishing. I've watched you carp fishing videos and wonder if our European tactics would work better. I was wondering if you had a p.o. box or somewhere I could post the rigs and fake plastic corn bait we use and maybe you could do a video comparing the way you normally fish to our rigs, bait and tactics.
