  • I can’t wait to try this recipe. I cooked two whole sea bass on the grill, and found it to be easy and less work then filleting the whole fish. I also think that filleting the fish increases its degradation . Just as soon as that meat is exposed to air, it is less fresh. Keeping the fish whole maintains it longer
