(Do Not Marinate Too Long Or Fillets May Start To Deteriorate. Always Marinate In A Cold Container.) Make A Small Fire With Charcoal. Once Coals Are Hot-- Ashen White-- Place Fillets Skin Side Down On Grill, Brush Or Drizzle With Marinade, And Cover With A Tent Of Aluminum Foil. (The Foil Acts Like A Lid, Allowing Fish To Cook On Both Sides At Once) With The Grill About 3 Inches Over The Coals, Cook The Fillets For About 15-20 Minutes. When The Meat Flakes, The Fish Is Done. Overcooking Will Dry Out The Fish And Compromise Its Flavor. Serve At Once. Store Any Cooked, Uneaten Fillets In The Cooler For The Next Day.Each Of These Marinades Is Simple To Make And Will Keep In An Iced Cooler For A Few Days. Never Reuse Marinade; Once Youve Put Raw Fish In It, Only Use In Cooking And NOT As A Dipping Sauce. Leaving Fish Too Long In A Marinade Can Turn It Mushy. To Be Safe, Marinate Fillets For 30 To 60 Minutes.Enjoy Your Fishing And Good Eating!
