Today I discovered that a simple plastic bag is all you need to scale fish – no flying scales, no dirty hands, just a clean and quick process.

Step 3: After descaling, take the fish out of the bag and simply toss the bag away—no splattered mess, no extra scrubbing required!

🔥 Why this method works so well:

Less cleanup – the scales stay inside the bag instead of scattering on your counter
✅ Better grip – the plastic layer keeps the fish from slipping out of your hands
✅ Time-saving – faster cleaning with no need for extra scrubbing afterward

💡 Pro Tip: If you don’t have a bag available, try scrubbing the fish with the rough side of a sponge under running water. It’s much tidier than the old-fashioned way!
