i have filleted a shit ton of fish over the decades, but that is stunning! use electric knives?
nope,a surprisingly small 5" knife for halibut,but like 4 of them so i could take a break and sharpen them every so often...i would tape up my index finger so it was fairly stiff,lay my finger along the back of the blade so it was sorta point and cut...on halibut there's a line on the skin right above the spine so you cut along the spine on one side then make your end cuts at the tail and under the sort of collar at the head,then start slicing along the ribs to free up the two fillets per side...when you're good at it there's almost nothing left on the carcass...
salmon i used a 16 inch scimitar style knife...they're easy to fillet...
