Ladyfish are a type of saltwater fish that can be found in tropical and subtropical waters around the world. They are known for their long, slender bodies and their ability to leap out of the water. Ladyfish are popular among anglers because they put up a good fight when they are hooked.
If you want to try your hand at catching ladyfish, here is what you need to know about how to prepare them.
First, you will need to clean the fish. Start by removing the head, guts and scales. You can do this by either using a knife or by running the fish under cold water and then scraping off the head and guts with your fingers. Once the head and guts are removed, use a knife or scaler to remove the scales from the rest of the body.
Next, you will need to cut off the fins. Use a sharp knife to make cuts along both sides of each fin. Be careful not to cut yourself on the sharp fins! Once all of the fins are removed, you can discard them or save them for another use (like making fish stock).
Finally, rinse off your ladyfish fillets under cold water and pat them dry with a paper towel before cooking. Ladyfish are typically fried or grilled whole; however, you could also cut them into smaller pieces and pan-fry or bake them depending on your preferences
