That tip applies to more than just fish too).

For the whole branzino, I typically stuff it with lemon and herbs (typically rosemary), I would think you could do something similar with a filet
Should I flip the skin along with it? If so, I guess you just season that side of the flesh when you take it off the grill. I don't do whole fish....it's bad enough that the skin creeps me out---I don't need an eyeball staring at me.
