Specks - electric knife:
- Hold by the head, anal fins up
- Cut the belly from the a-hole to the gills
- Turn on one side, cut from the head to the tail
- Flip the slab then cut the fillet off the skin while the skin is still attached to the tail/carcass
- Turn over, repeat the last 2 steps
- Hold by the head, anal fins up
- Cut the belly from the a-hole to the gills
- Turn on one side, cut from the head to the tail
- Flip the slab then cut the fillet off the skin while the skin is still attached to the tail/carcass
- Turn over, repeat the last 2 steps

Regarding starting from the tail - supposedly you can cut the entire length of the filet until the knife hits the head. If you start at the head you miss a very miniscule amount (this is what my anal-retentive uncle preaches anyway). Not worth it to me to switch, Im already used to head first.

That's the way I do it. that way you don't have to cut through the air bladder which is very tough.
