Thread: Filleting Trout

Some one asked me the other day how I fillet trout,I thought I already started a thread on this but forgive me if there is one on here I searched and couldn't find it maybe I was wrong.

First catch ya trout


Slice down the back bone


Place filleting knife under the white bones as above and slice out just under the bones,slide filleting knife down through tail no bones there. Run finger along top of the half trout and slice between the row of bones.



Those white bones will come off like this leaving the flesh of the trout behind.


Have another beer

Don't cut ya self

This is the top row of bones


Now just look at the pics, think yas get me drift



Tail bit no bones,fillet the top strip up and the bottom bit down leaving the row of bones on the skin.


One tray of trout fillets

Next tray of fillets

Well done looks a good job, if you smoke em I just gut em and butterfly them. You also an pull the centre bones out with tweezers.
