Thanks for the info brandt.. im opening a commercial fishing company very soon and found your video to be the most informative for preserving fish fillets. Thank you!

Thank you sir!

"Southern Fisherment" sent me over here im glad he did, I love the editing and camera angles of the fish being cut up. this sealer looks like it would be a good idea for some deer meat as well

Thanks mate, starting a wholesale fish & squid business in Bali, this will give me the edge

great video lots of good info right there

[@jiminoc]

thanks for turning me on to the chamber vacs! I tried packing a thresher years ago with a foodsaver and it was a disaster and half the seals wound up popping due to moisture. It also took all day because of waiting for cooldown time. What size bags do you usually go with and do you do the 3ml or 4ml thickness?

Can you clean tuna with water before you vacuum seal it? Of course use towels to remove all water after

[@DanielDiaz-qb5jx]

Would you say this is a lot better than a Weston pro 3000

How long can bluefin be in my fridge after a catch?

[@jackiefitzpatrick2906]

What about the collar? That's a great meal right there .

[@BDOutdoorsdotcom]

The collar is delicious!

We've pulled vac sealed halibut that got lost in the freezer out 6-8 years later and it cooked up just fine

[@kimie126]

How was the taste and texture?

[@dylanstompe6534]

@@kimie126 Not as good as fresh but still very edible. Maybe 80% as good as fresh

why did you seal up mr. Hankey the Christmas Poo

[@socaloutdoors7355]

Unless you’re trying to vac 300+ lbs of tuna, the Food Saver is more than adequate. To go spend 900 bucks to seal up a few catches annual is kinda frivolous. If I was catching massive amounts annually I’d just pay to have it processed…because the amount of money you’ve already spent catching that amount of fish, I’d guess money really isn’t an option at that point. Cool vid but not really relatable to the average dude going out on a charter or filling up the personal boat with 401k money.

[@BDOutdoorsdotcom]

Thanks for the insight! Everybody does it differently and there's no one right way.

[@Sexyduffman420]

900 bucks for that thing.... that ain't happening. Looks nice though.

[@socaloutdoors7355]

Right…cover a subject using equipment the common poor fisherman would use…

[@donwilson350]

That was a good video but I didn't like the idea how you were bad-mouthing the Food Savers machines I have a food saver machine and I conceal fish and Venison and I don't have all them problems that you're saying that they have and I've got a titanium FoodSaver they can do up to 300 lb of me inconsistency is great it doesn't overheat it doesn't do what you say it does

[@absolutelywartorn3985]

First thing he says about food savers is they are great machines. Pro's and Con's to everything man. Food savers are small time. They do not seal up wet foods very well (ie. marinating foods, soups, chili). Also, the bags are A LOT more expensive. Short haul, food savers are an inexpensive option with chamber sealers costing more than 5 times as much as food savers. But, long term, the bags will break the bank. And, the dry pumps are loud, and won't stand the test of time. The Vac Master is a commercial grade residential machine with an oil punmp. If you are packaging a whole moose, blue fin, marlin, or deer, you need one of these, not a food saver. The last Elk I bagged, it took 253 bags to store it. At almost $0.60 for a pre cut 8"x10" food saver bag, it would have cost me almost $150. But my chamber bags cost less than $0.07 per bag. Long run, Chamber Vac sealer wins hands down.
