Filleting perch small and fair size with electric

[FishfulThinkin]

Thanks for posting the video. That is the exact same technique I use but I do have a second set of blades for my knife that are shorter and work very well for perch. I take almost a minute per fish but I'm still close to your rate of 40 in 33 minutes. I discovered last year that I am never again going to bring home 90 perch because an hour and a half at the filet board is way too long plus my shoulders start to ache etc. 40 is about my limit unless I have some help. I remember Pat Mcmanus has a great story about fileting hundreds of perch all night long so I should have known better but it's hard to stop the kids (including myself) when the jumbos are biting!
