I’m trying to think of any conditions which one would not clean the fish prior to cooking. I have none. Is there some fish you all don’t clean up there?
My already completed 'Lil Bit'. A Martens Goosen V12 set up to sail me to the fishing holes.

Just checking. I saw head, tail and fins so I was wondering if this was some special Cracker way of eating them :doh:

Got out before sunrise this morning. Beautiful day! Caught enough Spanish Mackerel to fire up the smoker tomorrow. Clara is running like a top. 3 guys, two coolers, tackle, and we were hitting 28 mph at 6000 rpms. Ran a good 30 miles including 2 + hours of trolling and burned just over 5 gallons of gas.

I've never smoked Spanish Mackerel, only mullet. How do they compare?
