Don't forget the "Cheek meat" on halibut ! Especially such a large one Great DIY video, thank you

[@jamesjohnson2740]

Just caught my first Halibut today! Perfect video to learn how to fillet it.

[@richarda.valdes1197]

Halibut are one of the best fish for catching on a rod and they are #1 for eating, grilled with butter and garlic 👍. Good video too🤭

[@macknmo]

Good grief, you are the master. That was beautiful...

[@KastKing]

He has a few halibut fish fillets under his belt! Thanks for the compliment we will pass it on.

[@sneekysmurf2084]

Freaking gorgeous! Great knives skills! The technique is paramount. Not to mention the sound. Love it!

[@KastKing]

Thank you for watching Sneeky.

[@sonomaviews9665]

Great video instruction... thank you. I have not caught a Halibut yet, so I am getting ready to get ready for the filet. 👊

[@eliset7512]

The 9inch blade is quiet long but it's a strong and sharp knife. My husband used this fillet knife to cut up venison and it worked well!

[@DYTangler]

What an awesome catch. And informative video. I carey the 5 inch KastKing knife in my tackle bag for a bait knife.

[@joshuaespinoza5082]

[@NasirANSARI-gq6ul]

[@kevinjohnson9370]

What kind of fillet Knives. are those

[@FISHBLADE1000]

[@ahmadalghali90]

[@KastKing]

The 5000 is not SW rated. If used in SW please clean regularly for best performance.

[@ahmadalghali90]

KastKing .... So what is the difference between size 5000 not sw rated and size 6000-10000 sw rated?

What is the brand of knife your are using?

[@LAMBOMODS]

Few things for newbies, blind slicing would get me fired on the charter boat. Lift the meat as you clear the fillet. You can see meat still on the carcass. Don't cut so deep into the belly. Move 1 finger over from stomach pocket. Worms, and gut fluids, tanited meat avoided then. On the first cut, presenter cut against the grain, otherside, cut was with the grain. That combined with blind cutting, gonna lead newbies to leave ozs of meat still on the fish. When you have clients standing over you, at 35$ a lb, every oz counts. Decent video, however would not fly on professional boats out here.

[@buffalofrieghttrain]

Can anyone reccommend where to purchase a knives similar to the quality of the knife the guy in the video is using

[@Fishing_WithChris]

Does halibut taste like Fluke/Flounder

[@KastKing]

Halibut is considered the very best white fish caught in saltwater. It is my favorite of any fish, anywhere. They are large and the steaks can be cooked in many ways but all are very good. Much firmer and cleaner than fluke or flounder. A halibut looks a little like a giant flounder and they can grow to over 300 lbs. We will be fishing for halibut in Alaska in a few weeks, stay tuned and make sure you have subscribed KastKing😁

[@davidrempel7427]

very well done, but you forgot the cheeks!

[@unclejagmeet6579]

Fucking beauty

[@vancouverislandextraordina9811]

forgot the cheek meat

[@KastKing]

Oh yes 👍🏼

[@arcticninja8865]

Yeah! That's good eatin!

[@MrDj-rl2ef]

I use to work at a seafood restaurant for 8+ years and I find your method very slow , we use to cut off the tail and cut off the head behind the gill and make straight cuts down and following the spin of the fish ,we would also , skin all four sides and cut into fish n chip size pieces for battering , boil the tails and heads for fish base broth for bouillabaisse stew

[@KastKing]

Hi Mr.Dj, thanks for your thorough feedback, good tips!

[@tonyz6421]

Wait, you didn't get the cheeks???????

[@private2371]

My gosh there is a ton of meat on those 🤤

[@trevorparker4899]

What about the cheeks

[@slimieeel1]

Good cut but he misses out on the most important and nicest parts. But ofcourse being non European he doesnt know about cooking, best parts or a bouillabaisse. But, his cutting is ok.

[@KastKing]

Lol... I guess you are a nice cook

[@rossmacrae749]

@@KastKing He is right though, your technique just looks a bit clumsy, not experienced

[@semmes5342]

never put the skin side of the fillet against the meat side of another fillet....cardinal rule #1...remove the skin as well

[@nickblackman1992]

You missed the cheek the oyster 🦪 of the halibut and you still left loads of meat on there ?
