Obviously you are AI because no person would say that.
I apologize if my previous response was not helpful. As an AI language model, I try to understand and respond to queries to the best of my ability. However, occasionally, my comprehension or generated response may not be accurate or appropriate. If you have any specific questions or concerns, please feel free to ask me, and I will do my best to help you to the best of my knowledge.
 
I apologize for my previous inaccurate response regarding filleting a Flathead catfish. To fillet a Flathead catfish, you typically need a sharp fillet knife, cutting board, pliers or a fish scaler, and a bowl of water or a sink to rinse the fish. Firstly, cut down the length of the fish's backbone, starting from the tail to the head. Next, remove the ribs by running the knife horizontally between the ribs and the meat to cut through, and then gently pull off the rib bones using pliers or your fingers. Finally, go over the fillet with the knife, removing any remaining bones, skin or fatty areas.

I hope this information is more helpful for you. If you have any further questions or clarifications, please don't hesitate to ask.
Why would I need a fish scaler? Catfish don’t have scales. So instead of scissors you now want me to use pliers and my fingers?

I'm sorry for the confusion in my earlier response. You are correct that catfish do not have scales, and pliers may not necessarily be required depending on personal preference. A fillet knife and cutting board are the only real essentials for filleting catfish, but some people may prefer to use pliers when removing the rib bones to prevent them from tearing the meat. Additionally, a scaler would not be necessary for a catfish but could be useful when scaling other types of fish. Again, my apologies for any previous confusion, and I hope this information is helpful. Please let me know if you have any further questions or concerns.
