My Primitive Way of Cleaning and Cooking fish
PrimitiveTim:
After cutting my hand on a camping trip while cleaning a fish I decided it would be much safer to find a different way to clean fish. This is what I came up with. It's not only safer but you get all the meet from the fish and it's much faster and easier than filleting a fish. Check it out and let me know what y'all think!

That was pretty cool Tim!!! Do you notice any difference in flavor from on that is scaled with skin left on.

To be honest I've never scaled a fish. However, with this method the scales get charred and act as a plate so I think if you scaled it your meat might get burned. I've never heard of scales affecting the flavor of the meat though. In other species of fish it may make a difference but with bream the meat is very good. To answer your question, in my opinion scales would not make a difference in this case.
