brenton 637 Posted September 7, 2012 Author Report Share Posted September 7, 2012 Hi SL,the stomach cavity of gar has a black lining.If you were to leave the ribs on the fillet instead of the frame then the fillet would have the bones as well as the lining. cheers brenton squid lips 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

alexczarn 146 Posted September 16, 2012 Report Share Posted September 16, 2012 Would this way work to butterfly fillet any other kinds of fish? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Back for Bites 0 Posted January 1, 2013 Report Share Posted January 1, 2013 Cheers Brenton - gave this a shot last night and not a bad result. I think I'll be honing down that butter knife though! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
brenton 637 Posted January 2, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 2, 2013 Yeah the butter knife with the rounded tip stops you accidently cutting through the ribs.Its works for most fish Alex except flathead etc. cheers brenton Quote Link to post Share on other sites
