Just an hour ago, I was cooking a pikeminnow in the most old-school way possible. Her's what I did:
Step one: I cut off the head, and butterfly'd the fish (basically fillet one side and left one inch to the tail)
Step two: I marinaded the fish with salt & milk ( to add flavour and take away the bad taste)
Step three: I built my fire with cherry and maple wood, and I chose a good stick to put the fish on.
Step four: I hung the marinaded fish on the stick and placed it over the fire for 45 mins.
Step five: I split the fish in to the two fillets and I used the fork in my stick as a grill to cook the still-raw parts. The result was a delicious (but bony) fish!

Hey that sounds pretty good.

For freshwater fish that is a bit too bony you can use this old northern Italian recipe called carpione. Basically, you fry the fish and then you marinated it in a vinegarish sauce. It melts off the little bones. Very good recipe for the non "gourmet" type of fish to remove the muddy flavor.

I found an English version of the recipe here.

But please don't use the cinnamon, why people want to put cinnamon everywhere
