Longrifle: You gotta be a little more specific that just saying "fillet them". Ive never cleaned a fish before, Im sure I could get someone to show me what your talking about. I'll probably get my dad to show me.
DK, You gotta be a little more specific in your post. LOL
Anyways, with the fish on it side, put your filet knife right behind the gill plate. Cut down to the backbone. Then cut down the backbone all the way to the tail. Then you can remove the side, and skin it. Or you can skin it first. Flip the fish over, and do the other side. A lot of people don't filet bluegill, thats just the way I have always done it. And as far as eating the fins, I'll pass on that. Just never even tried it. Good luck
