| I clean them like any other large fish. Cut em behind the gills, make a cut down the lateral line to the tail, cut from head to tail down the back, roll #1 fillet off. Do the same on the lower portion including cutting out the rib cage and cleaning it seperate. I skin each tenderloin the same way, skin it and de-bloodline it. I don't put any water on it while cleaning it. I cut it into small roasts and vaccum bag it. I know it's vague, but, I do wahoo, yft and dolphin the same way....

Wade pretty much hit it dead on. We had a couple last year that even though they were iced good whe we got back and started cleaning them they smelled kinda rank!. We started gutting them on the boat them put em on ice havent had a problem since.

| Thanks for the input. Also i was watching a guy gaff a sword from the get lit fishing team. When he went for the gaff shot he went to the outside shoulder, brought the hook to the inboard side of the fish and when he delivered the shot it rolled the fish upside down. What is that a better and safer gaff shot than opposed to the outboard shoulder?
