I do mine the following way.
Clean out fish.
Fill cavity with chopped spring onions and ground ginger, salt, pepper and a couple of small knobs of butter.
Wrap fish in tinfoil and bake in oven Gas mark5 for 25 mins.
Unwrap, open fish, and lift out back bone etc in one piece, close fish.
Eat while hot.
