I've actually never even used the grill toppers yet, but included them in my list because i intend to try them. Jason Klass has recommended them. They actually weigh 0.8oz each and Jason claims they are tough enough to grill trout on when propped up by rocks.

I have always just baked fish in the campfire wrapped in foil. But I thought about adding some nice grilled flavor too the trout with the grilling idea. I figured they would be worth the weight of a couple of ounces to bring 2-3 along. Plus, I sometimes get wrapped up into the whole "grilled food over a campfire" routine. And when BP'g it is so hard to do.....so these little grills look dandy. Hope they're strong enough to work.

I never cook trout if fires are not permitted. The only place where this has been a concern was RMNP and the IPW and I'm only in there for one night at a time anyway. All other areas I go or intend to go always have allowed fires with some minor restrictions. And no campfire bans this summer with all of the moisture the Rockies have received this spring.
