    Gutting before filleting?

    I bleed in the boat and then gut the fish before I filet. I find that sometimes the guts can get in the way, especially on a bigger fish. I'd rather have a clearer view to see how my cut along the backbone is going as well if for some reason I start to run through it or something.

    Deadly European virus found in B.C. salmon

    Well at last the smoking gun has been found. The industry can deny the effects all they want, but there is no reasonable doubt as to where ISA has come from. Somewhere a cloud just receded and the light at the end of the tunnel got a little bit brighter...

    Shaw services

    one thing going for shaw is at least it's relatively easy to get someone on the phone. my experience is that telus customer support can be brutal... and you don't have the face to face option (which is available in vic at least). my game so far has been to sign up for tv, and then cancel...

    Rinsing fish

    at some cutting tables you can rinse with salt water... i can't see that having a negative effect? i think getting the slime off is of major importance. bagging a filet with slime still all over it means the meat is likely gonna get covered in slime and that stuff gets fishy smelling pretty...
