Lay the fish on its side in front of you and grab the head firmly. Place your fillet knife directly behind its fin and cut downward to the backbone. Do not cut through the backbone.

Turn the knife flat in the direction of the tail.

Slowly begin to slice towards the tail of the fish making sure to stay as close to the back bone as possible. Cut to the end of the tail, but leave the skin attached.

Flip the fillet so that it is laying flat on the table with the scales down. Lay the knife flat on the table between the meat and the skin of the fillet where the skin is attached at the tail and use the same slicing motion to remove the meat from the skin of the fish.

Remove the centre fillet bone.
Repeat with the other side
