Glad to see your picture of the fillet. I filleted my sheephead and was kind of dissapointed at the size of the fillet. But your picture shows about the same as I got.
Is it better to just gut it and cook the whole fish?

Good eats Jim. I got a half limit worth taking on Monday. The starries and flag rockfish are eluding me, but I shall find them one day!

I cook them whole. No fish waste there and the tastiest parts of the fish are often not the filets IMO.
