Fish ribs anyone!?!

So when I went on my first fishing trip in the ocean a few weeks back, I overheard many guys saying they wanted their fillets with ribs left on. Seems that most will trim them, themselves and cook them up. Seemed logical since a lot of meat can be wasted. So now when I prep the fillets I trim out the ribs and sauté in butter and some other seasoning and serve them up to those who want them or better yet me! Just wondering how many others do this. Its easier with fish that have larger bones, I still probably wont do it with most freshwater fish though!
