    A whole side of sea trout done in a fish rack is really good - serve with some lemon thyme butter.
    Sea trout will be farmed but can be very good all the same.

    I've done this before - I lashed two grill doofers from grill pans together and held them with tinfoil twisted into strings. Worked a treat! And it tasted great.
    A sea trout is cheap too - will feed 4-6 people.

    Correct, Mackerel is beautiful from the bbq. A little shake of salt and thats all it needs.

    And very easy to catch yourself if you're near the sea!

    Mackerel needs mustard!

    I like jumbo prawns, marinaded in olive oil, garlic and a little lemon, then threaded on a skewer and on the bbq for a flash cook.

    Or if you're feeling rich, intersperse the prawns with some scallops wrapped in bacon. Mmmm. God I love fish/seafood.

    Bass is a good fish to grill. Closed season until the 15th of June though.
    You can always buy the small farmed ones in the supermarkets though.

    If you want to try something really different try planked salmon. A plank of untreated cedar is soaked in water for a few hours, then you lay the side of salmon on top and barbecue the lot on the grill. The smoke from the plank penetrates the oily fish and is delcious. And it looks cool too :D

    Red snapper!! One of the best meals that I've ever had was freshly caught red snapper - straight from the fisherman's boat - barbecued in jerk sauce on Hellshire beach in Jamaica.

    Just about to say it, red snapper or kingfish.

    I like to leave the fish whole, topped and tailed, butterflied and stuffed, slow cooked on the bbq in tinfoil and then open the foil for the last few mins to brown the outside.
