How do you gut a fish?

When you catch your fish, first descale it by scratching away at the scales from the tail towards the head.

When it has been descaled, put the knife, point first, about half way along the fishes belly, normally just behind the fin on its belly.

Put the knife into the fish and make a slit about 5 inches long. Then using your finger, remove the guts and wash the fish. It is now ready to cook and eat.
