Fish were jumping when we walked the dogs this morning so Bob was off with his fishing gear soon as we made it back to the cabin. I don't think he was gone an hour before I heard him calling in the back yard holding up a nice big ol' sockeye. Here he cuts up the fish the way a Korean guy showed him last year that minimizes waste. He needs to clean a few more to get proficient at it but we got a nice bag of ground meat for patties and a bunch of filets.
Without gutting, begin filet from tail end |
Cut through to gills |
Remove side |
Scrape flesh from bones with spoon (use to make salmon patties) |
Flip over and repeat on other side |
