    As a Norwegian I can share that I have never met anyone, ever, who has preferred scales to a soggy fish fillet. Scales are nasty and ruin the meal, a little extra moisture is manageable. The advice I got from my family when I was little was that if you are afraid you can't get all the scales off a fillet then you simply don't fillet the fish. Then again back then boiling was a lot more popular.

    On the round fish the pin bones are along something called the mud line which you can cut completely out in a V shape. There is blood flow in the mud line and it's the fishy part of the fillet so it's good to cut it out completely.

    I'm of the strong opinion that running a fillet under water does not remove flavor. It does remove scales, slim and blood that may be on the meat from the cutting board. Laying the fillets on a towel (paper or otherwise) after rising will remove the excess water, and all is good.

    Here in the UK, that branzino is called 'bass', or 'seabass' (a tautology, as there are no freshwater bass in the UK). And being a Brit, I just can't get used to 'fillay' - I 'fillet' my fish (and I eat plaice skin - delicious!).
