I leave the gummy fillets in the fridge over night in a big tupperware container to drain before cutting it up into portions
that seams to do the job

of cause I have blead and gutted them early while still on the water

I agree with washing off in salt water ( all salt water fish should be washed/rinsed in salt water ) but if I have to do that at home I just salt the water with some cooking salt
quite offen the water isn't that clean where I return ( all mud ) so I just skin and fillet the gummies on a towel and rinse them off at home
