Skin on Skin Off?
Just curious what most of you do with your fillets. Do you take the skin off or leave on?
For walleye, perch or any panfish I usually take the skin off. I actually like the taste better with it on, but most people I talk to and my guests prefer to have it off. Kids also seem to like it much better with the skin off.

Just verified it on Snopes. Liberals are complete mouth breathing idiots.

Re: Skin on Skin Off?
Same thing for me. I prefer to leave it on, but damn near everyone I've ever served fish too wants it off

Re: Skin on Skin Off?
I cook it with skin on, it helps to hold the meat together. when cooked the skin comes off very easy.

Skin on... Keeps the fish together when flipping it.

Re: Skin on Skin Off?
If I bake it in the oven I usually leave the skin on, and then when I take it off I try to get the spatula between the skin and the meat leaving the skin stuck to the aluminium foil. If I grill a whole fish I just leave the skin on.

Re: Skin on Skin Off?
I leave the skin on while cooking just for ease in flipping and holds filet together. If they want it off it peels off easily after cooking. Deepfrying I will take all the skin off, because you lose some coating if you pull the skin off when its cooked.
