Abstract: A method and apparatus for scaling a fish by hand is disclosed wherein the apparatus includes a handle and a scraping element connected to the handle. The scraping element includes at least one row of serrated teeth projecting from a surface of the scraping element. A relatively large water conducting tube is fixed with respect to the handle. At least one relatively small tube projects from the relatively large water conducting tube and is positioned on the scraping element adjacent to the at least one row of serrated teeth. The relatively small tube includes a plurality of angled holes from each of which a jet of water issues to wash the fish being scaled. A valve in the relatively large water conducting tube permits a user to regulate a flow of water through the large tube.
