If you just give them a cut through the gills and then put in a 5gal buck of water they bleed out. Poke the knife in, give a twist and if you see blood on the blade, perfect. If you throat latch them (cut through the part below the gills and sever the main artery completely) they can die before they bleed out. Do the same for fluke and black seabass. Snow white fillets.

I agree on the Dexter 136 series that has been our go to for years. Used this year on everything from fluke to Yellowfin (the 8" on the YFT). Skip the fancy bubba blades etc. IMHO, not needed. Keep one razor sharp; (I keep it in my bag and sharpen/wash after each trip) use a duller/older one to skin.

This
10” dexter with steel blade and wooden handle,,, does it all :-)
