    Anybody know how to do this???

    I get the grill preheating. I take the skin on trout fillet and drizzle on olive oil. Then I sprinkle a bit of salt and pepper followed by one or two dried herbs. A bit of lemon if I am in the mood. Put them on the grill skin side down for about 10 minutes. Easy and pretty good.
