My trout cleaning skills LOL!

These are a couple pics from my trout I cleaned up this morning.

As y'all can see there's not much left when Killer "B" puts the knife to 'em.

EM! EM! They were tasty tonight. I grilled 'em over mesquite coals. I should have taken a picture of 'em after I got done grillin 'em, as they looked like something out of a cookbook. (Not to brag or nothin')

@#$% it, there I go again making the friggin' pictures all look all crazy and huge. What in the @#$% am I doin' wrong?!?

Looks like you done a fine job to me

Looks pretty good to me too but it looks like you are not quite done if you are looking for boneless fillets.

When the rainbows get big enough that their meat aquires that orange hue-YUMMY thats when I like em! Great job with the knife! I usually cook them whole with heds on! But I cant take take anything away from your technique!

That makes me hungry! Great job!

They look way better than mine would have. But I'm a fileting rookie!!!

Almost looks like salmon!!!!

I'm with you churly, those orange meated trout are awesome. They are one of my all time favorite fish to eat but they are rare and hard to catch on a regular basis.

Yeah,

They weren't completely boneless. But the bones pull out better when they're grilled up. Plus and most important though, is the fact that I don't lose that precious rib meat, by running down the rib cage with the filet knife.

It might not seem like a lot of meat, but the best part to me, is the meat along the ribs. I just pull off the ribs and pull them through my teeth, to get all the meat off the bones. Man that's the stuff!

Churly I usually grill 'em whole too. Stuff lemon slices in the belly and cover 'em with a good layer of lemon pepper, and wrap 'em in tinfoil. 10 to 15 min on the grill and BAM!!

Tonight though, it's crab stuffed tilapia filets. Man I'm gettin' hungry just thinking 'bout it!

When you resize them, check the "make them 75% smaller and they will turn out just fine. Be sure to save as.

You are doing it very right. Always leave skin on if you are grilling them. I usually grill them whole. Just gutted and washed. I do like the looks of the way you have done it. Especially with the ribs in. That protects that fish bacon
