To keep delicate foods like fish from sticking to the grill, oiling your grates is very important. Using long handled tongs, dip a wad of paper towels into vegetable oil and brush over hot grates to prevent foods from sticking. It will also help with after-grilling clean up.
You can also lightly spray cooking oil on the meat itself in addition to oiling the grates, but never spray it into the grill.
