Grilling fish with skin sound like a difficult task because fish is so delicate and tends to stick, however it really isn't as hard as it seems. Yes, your first time out with out the simple tips I'm going to show you, you may have had problems, but you won't anymore.
One of the most important things you can do to grill fish with skin is having a clean grill grate. So make sure it is clean before placing you fish on it. When grilling fish with the skin on you want the the heat level at a medium-high. So set up your charcoal or gas grill for a medium-high heat level. You are going to grill the fish directly over the heat source as well.
To help prevent you fish from sticking, brush the skin side of the fish with a bit of melted butter, olive oil, or canola oil. Once the skin is brushed with a bit of oil or butter and the grill is heated, place the fish on the grill skin side down directly over the heat. Now place the lid on your charcoal grill or shut the lid on your gas grill. Keeping the lid closed with help with cooking your fish evenly and quickly.
It will only take around 10 minutes or so to cook your fish, so you will want to check on it once in awhile. When you check on your fish ensure that the skin isn't burn, but just crisping up a bit. If it looks like it is burning, slide some aluminum foil under the fish. Cooking the fish skin side down does not require you to flip it.
