re: What’s your fish cleaning set up

Stainless Steel table from Ducote's restaurant supply, a large plastic cutting board from there as well and a 5 gallon bucket for the scraps. I use the electric knife to fillet all the fish then use the cutting board and a rapala fillet knife to remove the ribs and stray fin bone from the fillets.

Amen brother! Electric knife is the only way to go....I can do 50 crappie with an electric knife in about 15 minutes...like a machine. They ain't perfect but who cares when you have 50 to do? When I was kid we scaled, headed and gutted everything because we was cheap LOL....it would take 3 hours to do 50 crappie or bream that way!

I also almost never pluck a bird anymore...maybe a goose or 2 a season and a mallard if it is proper but I breast everything out...that's all anyone eats anyway and the difference between actually plucking a giant western Canada and breasting it out is about an hour....
