@@MattWarren-q7r just regular cheap table salt. Doesn’t need to be iodozed or anything special but finely ground is ideal. 🤙🏼

How long should the second upright drying stage take ?

@ it depends on the type of weather in your area at the time of year you’re doing this. I am in Southern California and it isn’t too cold and moderately humid in the days so possible 3-6 weeks depending. I generally check once a week to see how tail is doing and if easily compresses when squeezed. You want it stiff enough to hold shape with the ends dry enough to accept clearcoat/epoxy. Hope that helps.

Thanks is summer here in Australia so it’s pretty warm. Should it be kept in the dark in an upright position and do you have another video of how you seal it and mount it ?

@ yes it should be out of the sun to preserve the appearance until after it is clear coated with uv protection and yes upright to let it complete drying in cup of salt. I made a video of a tuna tail trophy recently that you can find on my channel page. Hope it helps and let me know how your project goes.

@@kdub9146 varies by fish but it will smell some. In a cup of salt will help until it’s dried. It doesn’t really smell after cutting and clear-coating the end (or epoxy) and clear coating the rest of the tail. Smells get trapped inside of it. 🤙🏼

Yea. I don't think I want to see how he starts a video on making veal.

I can understand that, but this is how it is to eat animal protein. BTW, 🐙 are very sustainable and live 1-1.5yrs with a high growth rates. 🤙🏼

@@DerPaintballingDoofus yikes! 😬

@@SpearwithX never said it'd be nice or humane, just said I wonder what would happen.

@@DerPaintballingDoofus I would think it would spaz out and buck wildly and likely pull the wire out in the process if you could get it in in the first place from partially cutting the tail to expose the spine.

@@SpearwithX Huh ok. Spaz out more than it dead while dead? Or just the same amount?

@@DerPaintballingDoofus it is dead in my video and if you did what I did with it alive, it would spaz out way more.

@@MozartMoser-u4r yes the foot pockets feel great and have been working perfectly with even comfort and energy transfer to the fins! 👍🏼👍🏼

@@thewitchcoven you might change you mind and enjoy fish if it’s prepared well! 😉🤙🏼

@@felt389 thank you for the specific definition of what I am doing in the video (destroying the spinal nerve canal) and I did not show the Ikejime (knife to brain) I had already done in the water. 🙏🏼

@@Kessalis those are cooked blood of the veins. 🤙🏼

@@FishingforMemories I would fan out the tail as nicely as you’d like it to look after severing it and freeze it solid first. Then you can prepare a box big enough for the tail and fill with regular inexpensive salt. Put tail in it and cover completely and close with lid. Keep it this way for four or 5 days to set the tail. Then transfer to a cup of salt standing upright to allow the rest of the drying process to happen ideally in a cabinet outdoors to deal with odors. Could take 1-3 months depending on your local weather/humidity. Good luck and let me know how it goes! 🤙🏼

@@baade6010 the fish was out to sleep soon after it was speared and didn’t feel anything after that.

I laughed so hard at this

😂

I'm assuming that the fish, in the state that it is in, no longer feels pain. 🤔

@@siriusness7505 doesn’t feel a thing. It was put to sleep quickly and humanely.
