I made some home made cod cakes last night. Some baked and some fried, the baked ones ended up flavourless and the fried ones tasted perfect, go figure.
Scallops are done when they have just turned opaque. If you poke them gently w/ a fork, they should slightly spring back as opposed to being mushy as they are when raw. The texture should be similar to a filet mignon or the heel of your hand below your thumb.
