I can’t wait to get out and put a reasonably sized rockfish on my stringer. 

Unsure about the knife scaling method tho.  I’ll take a swing at this for sure.

This guy also has a pretty good video on butterflying a fish (normal scaling though):



This is a somewhat similar approach that he calls “canoeing” which looks pretty cool too:

Yes. Better vids. I think the first guy didn’t show a few steps.  Thanks.

Cool technique, I think I'm gonna try this with some trout this winter.  Butterfly it open, put some pesto in the cavity, pop it on the grill. Serve with pasta and sautéed or grilled veggies.
