@Bendemo05 “Heaps better”. I don’t think so.
Check out the video “how to cut a tuna in 4 minutes” that guy is heaps better. Oh by the way, I’m that guy.
i’ll never find this fresh tuna in my country……
@SuperIrbo Tell me where i can go find 140kg yellow fins for an average, cause i want to fish there. Cause a good yellow fin is 90kg.
@SuperIrbo get educated. only one species of tuna (bluefin) is even close to being threatened, they’re so regulated that there’s no possible way to overfish them in the states. yer huggin the wrong tree my man.
i think i know this fillet guy! omg!
By wetting the knife does that help in the filleting?
Wustoff Dreizack seems to be the favourite choice.
@SuperIrbo
The average reproductive size of a yellowfin tuna is 39 inches, which appears to be the same size as the one in this video. The size of a mature tuna varies greatly depending on the species; you will never see a skipjack tuna that weighs 140 kg.
Incidentally, yellowfin tuna are in no way an endangered species (although bluefin tuna are quite threatened).
this tuna is probably about 30-40 kg (70-90 pound), which is very little for a yellow tuna. The average weight for an adult tuna is 140 kg, which means this tuna is still very young. Overfishing and fishing young tunas (before they are fully grown) are now making tuna’s an endangered species. Seeing this made me both sad and angry, shame on you fisherman!
Mmmm yellow tuna
what kind of knives?
ancient chinese secret
i want a knife like that
asians: beast at everything from math to dancing to filleting fish
To have a Tuna like this on my line would be a dream come true!
So many unnecessary cuts!!! No need to decapitate or cut tail. Get a better knife so u don’t have to fuck up the top fillets! Dumbass wasting tuna
@Taffytyrann and 1:18
@heavyq hey i want one of them knives too , what brand are they
0:25 The fish felt that…. xD
there usually gilled and gutted and bleed onboard commercial fishing boats , they usually bleed them by cutting a small wedge just behind head , into a main artery wich runs along the top of the spine , that’s how i receive most of them anyway but do receive them bleed under pectorial fin also , probably just quicker behind head but as nice presentation.
good job thats how i cut yellowfin here in sydney and sometimes much bigger usually get about 60% return but use a different knife to those guys ,i use a 9 ” dexter russell ,more like a traditional filleting knife and only about $40 that looks more like a knife i’d use to cutlet salmon but i’d like to try one , they must cut alot of tuna , we send alot of our waste to the pelican feeding and sea bird rescue.
O__O Insane!!!!!! Amazing!! Loving it!
now if ANYONE tells me they can get more meat off a fish than that..than ima tell them that they are out of they’re gord!
