I personally cut the gills to bleed, sometimes I'll gut it and cut off the head. (Usually I just cut out the gills and wait till I get home to fillet it on our large cutting board)
As for knives, I am a fan of Buck (the ones made in the USA, not the China crap), Gerber, and Forsner. I used to own a Rapala fillet knife that actually held a really good edge, and wasn't too expensive.

Thx for sharing.
