Neat Trick I learned today

Try a dash a pure lemon juice. It also works great for cleaning up after the mess. The only thing I have found that will clean a cooler after  the carcas has sat in it just a little to long.

There is no need to de-slime Humpies in the kitchen sink. Just throw them in the crab pots and let the crabs do all the work

I don't know how hard it is to get slime off river fish, fish from the ocean we just lay flat and hose at a shallow angle so you don't bruise the meat. Removes the scales and the slime.

Where did you get humpies this time of year?

Gasoline works.

I have been using water and vinegar for years to sanitize wooden cutting boards for years. It will also remove the stale odor on cast iron Dutch ovens and frying pans. The mixture was also used during the Civil War to disinfect wounds cheaper than whisky.

I am going to try this if we get another Sockeye season this year! Their slime is horrible!! I also wonder if this would work on perch before filleting them??? I know I battle their slime non stop while trying to get them filleted fresh!

Try scaling, then fileting those perch and other panfish, the skin provides a huge amount of extra flavor.  Never noticed them to be too slimy though.

I spray the scales off with the hose as well, though I seem to recall it doesn't work so well for the pinks we got two years ago.  Can't hardly remember that long ago....

Back east when ice-fishing we would catch yellow perch literally by the 5 gallon bucket full...we'd skin them with one of those hand-crank fish skinners, then fillet them. Yummm for deep frying in a batter.  No complaints ever with that either.

Wow sounds like it is pretty easy, suppose just a white vinegar? I'll have to try that on one of them springers that are on there way.

Diluted Vinegar is a darned good cleaning agent for windows and just about any other surface.

Does it work on Linux too?

Seriously though, neat trick.
