becomes chilled before expert hands with flashing knives cut the fillets
from the fish. Only the solid all-meat portions of the fish come off
the end of ‘the, production line. ‘Skins, scales, insides, bones, head and

tail are removed. This filleting process eliminates waste at the source
and cuts down transportation costs, for the inedible 50% of the fish
is not shipped.

After filleting, the fish is candled individually over a very strong
light and impurities are removed. The fillets are then quickly
weighed, and packaged in spotless protective cellophane wrappers
bearing the seal of the Government of Saskatchewan. After being
packed neatly in uniform layers in white wax-covered sanitary cartons,
the fillets are ready for the quick-freezing process that guarantees that
smack-out-of-the-water flavor that makes fresh-caught fish so delicious.

The Government-processed fillets will appeal to the housewife.
Attractively packaged, clean and protected, they are ready to cook in
a jiffy without fuss or bother. She is not paying for waste either
The pound of fish she paid for is the pound her family eats.

You own these fish filleting plants—patronize them!
