Dear Stella,
I have posted the same question on the list some time ago and got very good
response from the list members. Perhaps you could try to find the discussion
about candling tables in the archives ?
As for us, we tried a lot of things butin the end came to conclusion that in
our situation it was impossible to detect bones in our fish fillets in a
reliable way by using candling tables. The chance of success mostly depends
on the thickness of your fillets.
Cheers,
Freek

Subject: Candling Table for Bone Detection
Dear List members,
Does anybody have experience with candling tables (similar to those used for
detecting parasites) for visually checking fresh fish fillets for bones ?
I have heard that it can be done using a different type of light (not
fluorescent) but would like to know more.
Thanks for you help.
Regards
Stella Stacey
