A finished fillet should be done very quickly and have nary a bone when done. Anything less isn't filleting- it maybe fish cleaning but it isn't filleting. You should go into a fish cleaning house on Lake Eire sometime .Some of those guys are simply amazing. If you blink you missed a perch or walleye being filleted. If you breathed your nostrils will smell like fish for days. I go back every year, I grew up there and still have a brother who guides on the lake. I tried to take my wife in but about 100 yards from the building she stopped and said if you go in , burn your clothes on the way out but I'm not getting any closer. .
