I have seen a few of y'all, Mr. Jim being the latest doing this crappie on the half shell thing. Do y'all leave the skin on the fish or just leave the rib cage bones on it? If you leave the skin on, does it have to be scaled?

Leave skin and scales,take out rib cage. season how you want,put on grill scales down.
I leave ribs in and then the bones will just pull right out after they are cooked. I also place mine straight on the grill.

I need pics guys pics...:)
Imagine you're filleting a crappie. When you get to the tail, don't flip it over. Go right on off the end and cut the fillet off like you'd made a mistake.
Then imagine that same Feelay layin on the grill with the scale side down. Again, don't flip it over.
Then imagine the Feelay puffin up all purty and white with your favorite spice sprinkled on it.
Then imagine that cooked Feelay layin in your plate with the scales still facin down.
Then imagine yourself eatin it like a baked tater.
How's that fer paintin a pichur in your head?

And a nice garden salad to.
Miner has it down.. Only thing I could add is you might think strange, but it works for us. We use a spoon to dish out the meat. Way easier than a fork..
