First

[@ClaytonSchickOutdoors]

JAY!!! You were legit first!! You win a free fishing trip with Clayton this winter!!

[@jonathansammut6832]

was so close

[@Juicy_Farts]

Clay, you can show him how to catch big fish! His fishing cabin is way more legit though, not gonna lie....

[@FondelMikeRotch]

Jay probably had baby poo on his hand when he typed that out though. Enjoy Jay!

[@otcoutdooradventures]

Nice😂

[@travisjacobson7126]

Yay! Save me from my boring Monday Clay!!! No ice no life 😭

[@jessebaker5007]

I was about to say the same thing then I saw this. 😆

[@markvolk2431]

A recommendation on the cheek meat. When your cutting the skin, leave a little bit of the skin intact near the eye. You can use your thumb to pry the meat up towards the eye, and it peels right off the skin.

[@pail8]

Good tip, I was thinking the same thing. I actually just cut a half circle, jam my thumb in right to the cheek bone and pull it out and right off the skin. Zero meat wasted every time.

[@BFrizz847]

I just commented the same thing, LOL. Same with the wings. The skin will pull right off around the fins.

[@kevingibbins3702]

The best and most comprehensive description of how not to waste fish. Great thanks.

[@outdoorBE]

Clayton you are my favorite KZbinr keep on trying to keep up the good work I took a picture with you at your ice fishing show

[@danielshogilev9685]

That garage setup is a 10/10, awesome video as always!

[@stevensundberg5049]

My buddy showed me the walleye wing a couple years ago and had never heard of it from anyone else until this, nice work! IMO, peanut oil is the superior fish fry oil.

[@adamzahrt309]

We love Clayton Schick Cooking

[@Booyahh77]

First off you have a dream garage! And second, thank you I do clean a lot of walleye but never knew about the "wings" or the zipper method, THANK YOU Clayton!!

[@chrisb5023]

I'm never successful trying to salvage the rib meat. I need to practice I guess. Tha KS for the tutorial Clayton, much appreciated brother

[@marran8140]

Absolutely love your videos. I live in Alexandria MN and if you ever fish in the area I’d love to tag along!

[@dalbert4991]

Jay tapping in first is some funny s***, lol

[@HazzTube]

Hi Clayton, You forgot to say “Of course, I’m Clayton Schick”😊 Love your channel.

[@jessebaker5007]

Been binging your ice videos from all the way back to 5 years ago. No walkable ice in northern Michigan yet so I'm living vicariously through your videos racking up knowledge for when it freezes. Best walleye cleaning video I ever seen

[@stevensaddler5530]

Some in montmermency county

[@loboyd691]

Really, no ice in Northen MI. Man, I live in SE North Dakota and the lake we fish already has 10 inches. We havent gotten to actually fish yet but guys are already on side by sides. a midwestern cold snap is coming next week Mon and Tues so hopefully you guys will get some ice.

[@lucascady4992]

I feel you Brother!! I live on a small lake in Manistee County... I'm so ready!!!

[@matts6768]

MN Matt, something to watch over lunch time, to bad my lunch isn't fish... Keep up the great videos...

[@tday99]

This may be the best explanation I've seen yet on how to filet with the least loss. Thank you

[@averykompelien6616]

A little trick with the cheeks is cut it out but leave a bit of skin attached to the walleyes face grab the cheek meat and pull it right off leaving the cheek skin on the fish. Love the vids Clayton!!! Tight lines

[@ThatsCowpoke2u]

I keep watching these videos while thinking…. Maybe I’ll get an auger this year, or maybe a new shelter. Then I remind myself That I’d have to drive 18-20 hours north to use them. 😂 this looks so fun!

[@otcoutdooradventures]

Great video. Gonna have to try and zipper method. Haven’t filleted a ton of walleye. Mostly due to not catching enough😂

[@ReelLifeWithMike]

Another quick easy video for those that don’t have a full day to get out. Also I guess after how good that gosh looked I know what I am making for supper.

[@sonnenburgoutdoors]

Excellent vid !! Nice to see somebody finally leave ribs on body of fish 👍👍 Just got the Merch . Super nice quality 👍👍👍. Thanks for everything!!

[@chrisciaravino1773]

How do you like that striker suit? I have a climate and love it. I am curious how much "better" their new one is.

[@Koyaxe]

Great informative video Clayton. 👍👍 You took your time and made it easy for everyone. Keep up the great info

[@svenrichard1]

So happy to see someone else that does wings and cheeks. Leave it to the “old guide”. Oh - and the zipper! You da man Clayton.

[@Jeeg_Quebec_CAN]

The season approaches here sooner than expected, already 2 inches of ice in some spots..!! And a Catch n' Cook video from CSO to top it off?? Unreal!! 🤘🎣

[@Jeeg_Quebec_CAN]

That is an awesome tutorial on cleaning em! The zipper part will save alot of hastle. 👌

[@fishinforlikes1611]

Great video as always, Clayton! I clean my walleye the same way as you, like to prolong the life of that blade. Still taught me a thing or two with the wings and zippering. When I do cheeks, the knife goes in, slides under the cheek, and when it flips out, I skin it as the knife slides out. Skin stays on the fish, cheek goes in the pan. Thanks for the great vid, keep'em coming!

[@JeffTull]

I have been cleaning walleyes for many years and this is the first time I’ve seen the zippering trick, I will have to try that next time…thanks for tip Clayton! Keep the vids coming, I love the content!

[@jimnummerdor9687]

Getting the lateral line out of any larger fish drastically improves the flavor. Also removing the darker meat that is just under the skin. Especially with salmon. Even if I’m smoking it I refuse to have that left on the meat. Try it sometime and you won’t go back.

[@danielrasmussen1759]

It’s awesome to see how other people do it! Wings and cheeks are the best part in my opinion!

[@mattwiederholt7258]

Yes. Totally agree with getting most of your cuts done on one side of the fish and leaving it on while going to the other side. Thought I was the only person that did that

[@ippielb]

So glad you posted this video, I saved this so i can try filleting now. I always just cut steaks out of it. My grandma will appreciate me getting better at filleting.

[@THARPYT]

Watching this while ice fishing is a must

[@Hovdenesfilms]

Awesome video and also thanks for all of the amazing advice.

[@waynejansen3116]

I started grabbing the wings last season. They taste fantastic! Most leave them on the carcass. Try them, you won’t be disappointed! Great vid on cleaning walleye!

[@FLUTTERYO]

Love the filet knife😍 another awesome video❤ thank you Clayton🎣🤘

[@jamierammell3946]

ThATS A REALLY GOOD WAY TO COOK WALLEYE AND FILET THANKS CLAYTON.

[@hannahkayee831]

I don't even like fish nor do I fish but watching you sure is entertaining.. now want to go ice fishing as I live in Minnesota.

[@davidnorman4398]

Great fish cleaning demo!

[@darcybain2657]

we had a some great Walleye Wing feed, great video, i have always done the pants, never the zipper, learned something new, you still can teach a old dog new tricks lol

[@zachthier2901]

Great video. Great tutorial on filleting the Walter

[@roysaari3028]

Great tips!! Appreciate every video you create!!! You deserve a million subs!!!

[@steelbro101]

i got to meat clayton at the fargo ice fishing show and it was so cool to meet him

[@FondelMikeRotch]

Whoo Hoo its the bearded walleye slayer!

[@xanderschoville]

At least I can watch someone catch walleyes, I was on first ice on Saturday and I lost a 27+ at the hole, I couldn’t believe it

[@lanceh8466]

Walleye wings are the best part of the fish! SO GOOD ;)

[@2milehighfishing396]

Keep ‘em coming tight lines

[@lucascady4992]

No Ice in Manistee MI, yet?! I really liked the tip of leaving the first fillet on for easier removal of the second, and keeping them together is awesome!!! Thanks

[@ClaytonSchickOutdoors]

Hopefully soon!

[@MECH-MASTER]

Was having a rough day, you turned that around. Thank you. 👍

[@sarahhulsmeyer5336]

I love watching your videos. I enjoy learning new things to improve my fishing!

[@michaelgates4917]

Finally starting to look like winter here in south Ontario. Few more weeks and we can GET Outside!!

[@robkreutzwieser9162]

Going to give the wings a try next time out. Thanks for sharing Clayton.

[@pennyHall22]

We are already watching you on TV when this came up how crazy is that

[@ClaytonSchickOutdoors]

That is awesome!!

[@FondelMikeRotch]

A great tip for checking oil temperature is to use a heat gun. And yes 375 degrees is the temperature you are shooting for. A hint or two to Santa and perhaps you will get one in your stocking.

[@nellieupnorth4960]

Awesome video! Thanks for sharing the info

[@bigsnag7773]

Great content......greetings from Stratford Ontario!

[@smokeeater9677]

Deadly! Looked delicious!

[@cheyennewoodward5376]

Wish you would make your video's longer!! I enjoy them i definitely learn alot from it! Keep them coming been watching you for years now!!!

[@robertmaloney567]

Another filet technique I will for sure try!

[@Honks34]

Wow that knife looks so sharp. Cuts through that walleye like butter. Wish I could find a good knife like that.

[@CCRickety]

You were speaking directly to Josh McShore lunch when talking about your rod tip right😂

[@bryangoer]

Saw ya on target walleye clayton awesome stuff your going national man one of the best anglers around i think !

[@fishlovme]

Great vid! I've also cooked the wings from bass and northern. there's not much for a cheek on bass, but nothern pike have good cheeks on them too!

[@patrickwaldrich]

First time I have seen this method, can't wait to try it! Thanks for the fishing trip!

[@jasonstefanuk3579]

Your supper looked just like mine. Except I added beans and stove stuffing. I think the walleye May came from the same lake.

[@kakah0le]

Thanks for the content! Learned some new tricks from your vid today!

[@joejohnson6023]

Excellent cleaning tutorial!

[@Senditoutdoors]

Awesome video!!! Can’t wait to try out catch and cook coatings

[@ClaytonSchickOutdoors]

Ya buddy!

[@Kroonag]

Great video Clay. Thanks man. I know there are a tonne out there already but I’d love to to see this again pike style. Cheers bud

[@ros335]

I got real hungry watching this one

[@ChasingtheKraken]

Really enjoyed it. Thanks for sharing.

[@Handlebar79]

Just made Monday a little less shitty lol! Finally camped on ice for first time loved it! I have a pretty big shack but do you find one big buddy heater enough or do you need two?

[@pennyHall22]

We do not quite have enough ice to go fishing yet but we have been checking here

[@justinhenry6479]

Awesome video as always Clayton. Always enjoy the raw type of videos. Great tips for cleaning fish!

[@cody24rommel]

Gonna try that way to fillet the fish. I’m excited that are coop has catch n cook

[@SVMSICE]

I didn't know about the wings, way cool!

[@Dj.fishing084]

My dad taught me to filet the same way only difference is we don't cut it all the way off at the tail. We leave it attached right at the fin and then skin it. I like that zipper trick though. I wanna try that as usually I just pant leg it

[@CastandConquer]

Love the wings one of the best parts

[@sashahwang7570]

I love every single your videos!!!

[@RyanMOutdoors]

Nice trick on that last fillet!!!!

[@gagevanhoose1207]

Keep up the great vids can't wait to get on the ice !

[@FranksDIY]

Wow looks great. I do a bater set up like you would for fish n chips. need to try that

[@savingtruckertom]

Trying your style of fish frying tonight. Found catch and cook for sale here in Nipawin sk.

[@Porthy8]

Those wings looked gooood. Never seen that before. I will definitely have to try it. Soooo bummed we didn't make it to Fargo. Picked Emery up from school Friday with our bags packed and she was sick 😫

[@pamelawray5290]

Hey Clayton, Thanks for the catch and cook video...very helpful! My question is, can you cook (can't believe I'm going to say this!), "frozen store bought" filets in the same manner once they're thawed?

[@Brando1914]

Love it! I'm new to ice fishing and have NO gear, but live in good ice fishing country (northeast Ontario) Any chance you have (or can do) a beginners guide to essential ice fishing gear that wont break the bank? :)

[@stetsondurand4076]

Another great video !

[@adamsmith3996]

I think a remote button for a retractable transducer should be invented. Happy holidays clayton .

[@Gendronk]

I'd like to see you do a laker too!

[@brianharrington5593]

Still slamming smallies in 38*F water. Probably this week is the end of Bass season. (12/15/22) Enjoyed your video and hopefully I will improve on my cleaning of walleyes. Great work and thoroughly enjoyed. Thanks for your efforts.

[@lewiskinneman]

Great vid boss

[@coremerasty1602]

Fishing then snacking hehe

[@jakedavid8187]

Great video

[@chesschess100]

Love your vids Clayton! Question for you: is there a reason why you don’t drill a second hole for the transducer? It seems like it sometimes gets in the way for folks (not just you) as they try to pull the ducer out of the way while fighting fish. Curious if there is a reason? Love your stuff. And thanks for that zipper trick.

[@JohniBoiiViDz]

Awesome video ! I know how to get the bone out now

[@jedi5691]

Right under the Fins/wings the heart is in that pocket and on bigger fish its big enough to eat. It kinda has the texture of cheeks it not bad.

[@thewildnorthnetley3054]

Pectoral chips....hmmm interesting salt n vin, all dressed...you could be on to something here....lol ..in all seriousness never knew that . Thanks.

[@pennyHall22]

You should come to Houghton Lake Michigan sometime to fish there's two big lakes here

[@dalbert4991]

Yeah man...love it!!

[@stephensmith2458]

Gotta say, never tried the wings. And I always used a smaller knife to get the scallops

[@carolpreteau9100]

Thanks for the tutorial 👍🏼 Do you fillet perch the same way, minus the wings and cheeks ?

[@adammead8197]

Makes me hungry for walleye..not gonna lie!
