I guess it has more to do with how many fish you are cleaning. In
our
last outing, our group of six caught and cleaned over 150 snapper,
grouper, kings, dolphin, and a wahoo. The electric knife won with
about
6-1 over the standard filet knife and the yield was better but we
were
under a time constraint with all of those fish so the guy with
the filet
knife was getting sloppy. I guess it's a matter of technique but you
could almost see through the fillets cut with the electric knife.

Ah...

My filets aren't designed to be multi-cut. Just get it off the
fish. I
could see how, if you were slicing multiple thicknesses from a single
slab
it would go faster...

Only six pigs would pull and keep 150 fish out of the ocean. That's 25
fish each.

Oink, oink, oink.

Might be the plan was to give some of it to homeless or needy people.
But, I suppose that might not have occurred to one of the me-me-me
folks.

The other possibility is selling them.
When I was fishing in Md the captain had a deal with a fish market in
Rockville to take all the fish off our hands for a reasonable price.
It made the fishing cheaper.
I saw it as a win-win because a lot of people had the chance to eat
reasonably priced fish that was swimming less than 24 hours earlier.
In Florida you do need a "salt water products" license to do that but
it is only money.



Considering that the poster is "larry," i would go with the oink,
oink, oink theory.

Like I said, run with that.

BTW - this was an annual charter trip to the Tortugas. My boat isn't
designed for that type of fishing.


Sounds like the green-eyed jealousy monster is eatin' at the insides of our boy
Harry again. Damn shame.
