TIP
Don't forget the to tell the fish vendor NOT to remove the fish scales when they ask to clean it for you. Whole fish with its scales intact is easier to grill and your fish will not dry up. Don't worry if you char it, just don't burn it! Be careful when you stitch up the fish. You can use the regular hand sewing needle and thread. If you are not up for some stitching, you can hold it together with some sturdy toothpicks.
