The skin is still on, but I'm pretty sure the scales are still on. I take a knife to the back and scrape across and they pop off. I'm not sure they're quite reflective as much as they are slightly translucent and yeah the mess is exactly why I made this post lol I was sick of having to do it in the sink before cooking each time
Edit this is what I'm talking about, the stuff on the knife
The scales are unfortunately across the whole fillet, not just a few stray ones. No bones though (most of the time, there are some missed stray ones sometimes)
