# Step 1
Wash the fish using fresh tap water. Avoid cleaning fish with lake or stream water, as it can sometimes contain contaminants.
# Step 2
Remove scales by scraping the fish with a fish scaler or the dull edge of a knife. Use short strokes from tail to head. If you plan to skin the fish before cooking, this step is not necessary.
# Step 3
Make a cut from the gills to the vent.
# Step 4
Remove the entrails with your fingers. Check the cavity carefully to make sure everything's been removed.
# Step 5
Rinse the cavity well.
# Step 6
If cooking the fish whole, remove the dorsal fin by cutting along each side of it and carefully pulling the fin out with pliers.
# Step 7
Wash the fish inside and out with cold, fresh water. Store the fish covered with clean ice that can drain from the container as it melts.
