Whole fillet off/rib bones stay with the carc method for me 95% of the time for salmonoids. Also a forschner fan and the 7 and 8 inch as well as the cimitar have their place. The cimitar excells at this as long as the salmon's head is removed first.

A salty Straits chum from Oct pictured with the tools. In this case the 7" fillet knife was used.







The one chum the the rest of the coho from the days catch. All three knives were used.
