Try agin for Burbot

I'm going to try again for Burbot this weekend. Wanted to go last Saturday but the weather in Cleveland prevented the drive. Is there any secrets to filleting a burbot? If I catch one I don't want to hack it to pieces.

Good sharp knife good pair of pliers to pull off skin like with bullhead or catfish fillet out following bone structure , thinslice off the dark outer layer of meat next the skin and cut slabs of meat to your liking .

    Thanks for the advice. "Why drive 200 miles to go fishing when you can be just as unsuccessful close to home"! Fairport Harbor is 20 minutes from my house.

    Tried Fairport Harbor on the Grand River Saturday for the Burbot. Nothing. Maybe I'll try Erie Pa one more time.
