Yep, I've fixed a few fish that same way, JD. Very good eating. I also cooked a big salmon in the aluminum foil on the grill once, but used barbecue sauce instead of the lemon, butter, and herbs. It went over quite well with the group that was there to eat it, and I liked it, too, but like either your recipe or smoked, even better. I've lost the recipe I got from a fellow in Alaska who smoked lots of salmon, but I believe it was two quarts of water with half a cup of salt, a fourth cup of brown sugar, and a fourth cup of lemon juice; marinate the fish filets in that overnight, then put them in the smoker. Sure good eating, but I found that white meat fish such as sheepshead, redfish, black drum, etc. was just as good prepared that way, and my favorite was smoked sand shark steaks.

Ever try a hobo oven? Take the fish, gut and scale or skin it, roll it in newspaper, soak it in the river and throw it on the fire! It works but I end up burning one side sometimes. The other side is always perfect!

Brad, I never tried the newspapers, but once when I was a kid, we did simply kill some fish, left them whole, packed them in a mud ball (clay) and put them in an open fire. When we drug them out and cracked the mud balls open the skin and scales stayed stuck to the clay and simply ate the white meat (would have been better if we'd had a dash of salt)/w3tcompact/icons/laugh.gif. We also ran out of food early on a camping trip once, rigged up a spit over an open first and "rotisseried" an alligator gar we had caught./w3tcompact/icons/laugh.gif
