Now that you have caught your dream fish do you know how to clean?

Good job. You must be so proud of yourself. You have just landed
the biggest fish of all. How do you clean it? You certainly don't want
those ugly fish scales all over your wife's clean kitchen. Now� what
to do. What about cleaning the fish before you leave your fishing spot.

You will need a great knife to start with-a fish fillet knife. Spread
out some old newspaper. Use a fish scaler or knife and work against
the grain of the scale. Once all the scales are removed, you can toss
the newspaper and rinse the fish.

Now it gets even messier. Do you know how to gut the fish? The less
mess the better. Take your knife with the blade pointed toward the
fish's head, poke the stomach and slit the fish moving the fillet knife
towards the fish's head. Do not cut deep.

Secondly, take the fish fillet knife with the blade pointing toward the
fish's tail and open the stomach. Remove all the fish guts.

Thirdly, remove the gills and lastly, wrap up the messy newspaper
and toss. There you have it. A perfectly cleaned fish.
