Thanks I appreciate it!

[@mssimona3667]

This a great video. I just went fishing last weekend and caught bluegills for the first time. That circular movement you stated was exactly what I felt when I was reeling them in.

[@bobcrappies]

Thank you I’m glad you had a good time

[@take2studio187]

Great video dude. Thank you. Helped a lot.

[@bobcrappies]

Thank you glad it was a help to you

[@kevinkaple3615]

All 3 are top notch eating …perch is the very best eating on planet earth….I leave the skin on all 3 tastes way better with skin

[@bobcrappies]

You are correct that is a good way to eat them, I just did a video where I even left the bone in them man that was good

[@Frank-uf2vn]

Thank you, finally someone living in the 20th century! You cant beat an electric knife for filleting (blue gills) fish! Although that Mr. Twister is going for $31.99 (Walmart) and I picked up a Black & Decker electric knife that fillets them very nicely even the small ones for $12.97. A dull cheap fillet (handheld) knife will destroy your fillets, but there is no such thing as a dull electric fillet knife!

Black Crappie typically spawn at water temps between 62 to 68 degrees Fahrenheit. Though different Lepomid’s spawn at different temps (spawning pumpkinseed typically coincide with crappie), bluegill’s are very late in the season and spawn in water temps well over 70 degrees Fahrenheit.

[@bobcrappies]

True!

[@CastFromTheHip]

Agree 100%, perch taste fantastic!

[@TidyMighty]

Question, do you bleed any of those 3 fish when you catch them?

[@tyler238]

I’ve never caught a perch in the Mississippi

[@pristeenepure]

Lots of meat left, could've gotten more out of the bluegill & crappie!

[@fallingraven3752]

Seems like a wast of meat cutting the rib cage out like that.

[@HookLineandKyleP]

Now I know how to clean these fish. Thank you for the lesson!

[@dylansmith8158]

You sure know what the definition of wasting is....... wow

[@marlonrolle9176]

Right! Left a ton of meat. 😂😂🤣🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂😂😂

Great job and some nice bluegill.... wanted to drop a quick update so you know what we are up to We hit the road full time September 1, 2018 the weeks leading up to the 1st were stressful to say the least and the busiest times we have ever had in our lives 1. putting stuff in storage (two storage facilities) 1. selling off "stuff" we were not going to store or sell...packing, moving and of course getting our trailer ready for FULL TIME LIVING etc. As we write this today we have been living in the trailer full time for three weeks and this has been our first stop of five where we had time and a fast enough internet connection to be able to watch any videos so we must apologize for being MIA....largely due to the internet speed you are able to get and or availability while traveling from place to place. While we have a hot spot for work it has limited service so we have to be cautious how much we use when we are in areas that do not provide good Wifi. which so far has been almost everyplace :( all of this to say it will be tough and there may be times you do not hear from us just know we will keep our subscription to your channel and we will come back and comment and like you videos as best as we can In closing THANK YOU for continuing to watch and support our channel it is very much appreciated.

[@DatBwoiXERXESdem]

Does your perch ever have those yellow grubs in it? And where can i get that knife

[@bobcrappies]

No yellow Grubbs I know a lot of times when I clean them their stomachs will have little baby snails in them must be good protein for them , And the knife is a Mr. twister been using the same knife for probably 12 years or more

[@dirklarson5281]

[@dailylingualism]

amazing, got the answers ,, ^_^ thanks for sharing this...thumbs up

[@mizomontana7651]

he never cleaned them he jus used a cheat code

[@fishingwithfredo2639]

Wow.. I never thought about cutting the ribcage out before filleting them.. LoL!!!... I'm definitely trying this next time!!!.... Also next time I catch a big ole bluegill I will try out that meat!!!!! thanks for Giving me these tips Sir!!!.... Great info here!!!...👍👍😀😀🎣🎣

[@ctownstepper4716]

Not bad. It’s unfortunate that you literally cut all the belly meat off the crappie fillet. I use a different method of cutting the rib cages out that allows you to keep a lot more belly meat and essentially have a bigger piece of meat.

[@bobcrappies]

You are correct

[@ctownstepper4716]

@@bobcrappies but if you have a bunch to fillet your method is a lot faster sir.

[@DISGUYROX]

this is a total waste of meat. I started fishing with my family before I was 5 y/o. Got my first flyron for my 5th BD and am still doing it 78 years later. We NEVER EVER filleted bluegills or crappie. We always & still scale them, cut the heads of and gut them. When they are fried with the skin still on and the dorsal fin intact, they are not dry as are fillets. When they're done, we'd pull the dorsal fin out and lay them open with a butter knife. The ribs come right out and all that meat is still intact. The ONLY fish we would fillet were perch and/or walleye because they are so difficult to scale. A fair sized bluegill on a flyrod is terrific. They are like crappies that lift weights.LOL

[@bobcrappies]

You are correct, you do get a lot more meat when you do it the way you said I used to do it like that back in North Carolina

[@TimmiMontreal]

sheesh! your electric knife looks like you need to put more muscle into than a simple sharp filleting knife. throw that thing away and use a real knife! ;)

[@bobcrappies]

I got ya!

[@littlejoe9381]

Thank you for the explanation. Knowledge is power and no one knows it all. I love to fish , but usually don’t have much time to do so. I’ve often wondered about the differences between these fish, but never took the time to learn. Thank you for taking the time to explain. 🙂

You’re very welcome
