Method

Preheat grill to medium-high heat for 15 minutes. 

Make sure the grates are clean: let any debris burn off and then use a grill brush. 

Using paper towels, gently pat fish dry and then brush all over with oil and season with salt, pepper and herbs.

Arrange on the grill (skin-side up) and cook until lightly charred and no longer sticking, 3 to 5 minutes. (Time will vary slightly depending on the variety of fish, but resist the urge to peek or move the fish while it cooks.)

Swiftly slide a large, metal spatula under the fish and carefully turn it over. 

Continue cooking until flesh flakes easily with a fork or a quick peek in the center shows opaque flesh, 3 to 5 minutes more.
