i cooked a filet tonight and left the skin on, mostly because i didnt know what i was doing. i baked it with some lemon pepper and garlic. it turned out to be awesome.

[ElvisLivesUpstairs]

who had thought skinning fish was so easy. I followed the advise and was done in no time with a clean beautiful fillet. no fish left on the skin at all. the big knife and sharp blade did the trick. thanks so much for sharing
