Cooking Redfish

A few buddies and I caught some redfish a couple days ago, and I plan on grilling them tomorrow. I have never grilled/cooked redfish before so I thought I'd ask you guys on here. What are some good ways to season them, and how long do I cook the fillets for? TIA

I like to blacken them.
Make a Paprika based seasoning, coat the fish in seasoning, dip the whole filet in clarified butter then put it on a hot cast iron skillet.

I love mine fried. I know most people prefer trout for frying, but for me nothing beats redfish for the frying pan. Next is blackened. They are fine grilled, but a tad "boring."

Easiest thing I've done is the old OB recipe of ranch dressing and fried onion strings. Fairly thin layer of the ranch, cover with strings, grill till flakey. Much, much better than it sounds. Blew my mind...
If they are already out of the skin, one of the other ways may be better than the grills once it will sick pretty badly.

Leave scales on one side. Poke holes in meat with fork to let butter/seasoning get into the meat faster. Melt butter in microwave (enough to coat fish). I stir a little lemon juice in the butter. Coat it with butter on the pit with scales down. Tony's or whatver seasoning on top. I hit it with butter a few times throughout the cooking. Sometimes I'll out a little italian dressing in the butter too for a different flavor. It's extremely easy.

I'll throw one into the mix (for reds on the shell):
CASHEW-GARLIC BUTTER:
1 cup salted roasted cashews
1/2 pound (2 sticks) unsalted butter, at room temperature
1 1/2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice
1 tablespoon minced garlic
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon Red Pepper Sauce or other hot pepper sauce
To make the cashew butter, pulse the cashews in a food processor until coarsely chopped. Add the butter, lemon juice, garlic, salt, and hot pepper sauce, and pulse until the cashews are finely chopped and the other ingredients are well blended. Take the blend and cover fish with thin layer. Grill on pit and enjoy.
I cooked this several times and it was so good, I almost punched my wife in the face.

Redfish has always been decent to me. Much better fish out there so I usually give away the Reds.

If you grill it, i like to leave the skin on one side and sear the meat side, this keeps it flakey and juicey.
