re: Fillet Knife Recommendations

The toughest game fish to fillet is a big redfish. One thing that will help is to start at the tail and work forward. Make one straight cut all the way from the tail to the gills, then cut straight down behind the gills to cut the fillet loose. Then flip the fillet over and hold the fillet down with your thumb on the tail end and work forward to take the skin off. A lot easier than cutting down behind the gills and trying to turn the knife toward the tail in the middle of all the big rib bones.

Specks, bass, and whatever are just a matter of practice. Any sharp knife will do well in the right hands.
