    Bloomin good day blindog, and you're a greater man than I for helping all those kids. Unfortunately most of the kids fishin in my haunts, seem to think cutting up Pollock while they're still alive is great fun and nicking bait is perfectly acceptable. They aint all like that obviously but a LOT are. Well done though mate, nice one.

    Hey were not all like that!
  3. M.P:

    1 large whole mackerel, about 8kg

    juice of 4 limes

    10 cm piece of ginger, finely chopped

    4 garlic clove, finely chopped

    2 scotch bonnets or other hot chillies, deseeded and finely chopped

    2 bunches of spring onions, finely chopped

    thyme sprigs

    salt and fresh ground black pepper

     

    Place the fish on a large piece of kitchen foil (big enough to be able to wrap the fish completely and generously in one piece). Rub the fish with the lime juice and season it with the remaining ingredients. Wrap loosely in the foil, sealing all around the edges well by folding them over. At this stage it can be left in the fridge for a few hours

    Preheat a hot barbecue and cook the fish in the foil parcel for 40 minutes. :):):)

    2 pandan (screwpine) leaves, tied together in a loose knot
