This clip shows a professional fish filleter and the kids reaction to watching a whole fish become a 'feed' in a matter of seconds. This fishing contest is huge for Foxton Beach and Foxton. Outside money coming into the district and that is what tourism is all about.

I love how he told the lady who set the fish up there "no charge I do this for fun!" She even said you can keep the fish then and he immediately started to barter with others! That is the true skill of a humble man! No money needed just enjoying himself

The 2nd fish is Blue Fish, bloody and fishy unless you marinated with yellow mustard or vinegar to get rid of fishy taste. Shark smell like ammonia after few day in refrigerator. I used to be the fish butcher by fishing charters during weekend and summer time while high school and get paid $1 each or $5 for 6 all under 16 inched. 50 cents extra each for 17”-24”, $2 for up to 36”. I get paid good $$ on cleaning offshore fish even $30-$50 for a tuna depend on size. I cleaned, portioned,and bagged it. I always bring home free fish for Friday fish dinner they exchanged me. Some time I give the free fish to kid and the father gave me good tips. Did for 2 years and saved all the money for nice brand new pickup truck to go to college and did not have to worry about big monthly notes while at school.

2nd fish is a Kahawai, fish native to New Zealand and some parts of Australia. Good table fish, good to be smoked and puts up a fight for a fish of it's size. Usually drain the fish right after you catch it and the flesh goes much whiter.

The guy has huge wrists & forearms from doing this all day every day
There's a place on Lake Ontario called henchen's marina. They have a couple kids there every summer who can clean a bucket of perch in 5 minutes. The big 20lb lake trout take seconds.
He preps fish as easy as putting on socks.
Reminds me of of my childhood, my brothers and I would sit on the dock's and catch perch by the buckets full. We'd bring them up to the old timers at the camp ground they'd filet them and we'd all split it.
He's at the top of the game, still hot all fingers see !
I had 4 guys who competed in WORLD CHAMPION fileting. THREE SECOND PER SIDE... I swear that these guys where handed a knife before they were born....lol
I was actually a little sad this ended so quickly.
Makes it look so easy.. noob vs pro lol. He's definitely hacker level
