Largemouth bass can be an excellent fish to eat, but knowing how to properly clean and fillet them makes a big difference!

In this video, I’ll show you two simple ways to fillet a largemouth bass. First, I’ll walk through the process using a traditional fillet knife, step-by-step, so you can see exactly where to make each cut and how to get a clean, boneless fillet. Then I’ll show you how I accomplish the same job using an electric fillet knife for a faster method when you have multiple fish to clean.
