How to Fillet a Grouper:
Remove the scales of the fish on both sides. Then make a clean cut behind the gills to decapitate head. Cut away the fillets starting at the top of the main bone behind the head of the fish. Cut out the flesh with a sharp knife, it will almost naturally peel away from the bones. Leaving the skin on makes it easier to cook and more fishlike in appearance but skin is tough and strongly flavored. The head and all the trimmings, bones could be saved for a fish soup or fish curry.
Another way you can cut fish head up to about halfway then inserted the knife into the stomach cavity and continued cutting but only through the skin do not touching the entrail. When it is done, pulled the head off and the intact entrail will came with it.
