I know you all know how to skin a catfish, but this has a different twist. I had never seen it done this way and I thought you might be able to use this. If you can , let the video load up and skip to about the middle. that's when he actually shows how its done. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H3p6yR0ccJU
That was pretty slick! Not sure I'd try the first few times with a live catfish...I'd probably skin a thumb if he flopped, but I may have to try that next time I catch some whole fryers. Thanks for posting!
I cant wait to try that.
Wow that works great thanks!
Crappiecatcher, love your posts. But you're orange typing is hard to read.
that is cool...uhh you have to CATCH them first huh?
Amazing.....SLIP
Live catfish skin (fillet) easier than ones out of the ice chest...SLIP
Cool, I always just take a fillet knife to them
I'm going to try that
Great, great post. Thanks man.

Hey Randy,
Welcome to the SEC. You will dislike Orange even more now. We Gamecocks have the Orange Crush at the end of each football season...Tennessee, Fla and Clemson. Don't like orange anything! We get a chance to see Johny Football next year, wish Clowney would still be with us to help contain him.
Hey Searay, the burnt orange makes me want to :puke. Not near as bad as purple of all colors, I mean who in their right mind likes purple? Let alone mix it with gold :). I bleed maroon.
I guess I'm out of my mind.

Well...caught a whole fryer today, and immediately knew I was going to try this...Lessons learned....1) knife must be very sharp to cut from tail up (as seen in video) without having to hold it almost the entire way (which I ended up having to do!)...2) don't cut TOO deep, or you'll tear off the head without peeling any of the skin off the body...
OK...ready to try again on the next one!
Yea. Gonna. Try that when I get to go fishing again.
Double post for some reason
very interesting:cheers2

Thanks, very good and informative.
Hate to bring back an old thread but I used this method yesterday and it works as described. Will also build some muscle!
