My mouth is watering.

Glad to see your leaving the scales on. Learnt that trick from an old commercial fisherman.
Told me its perfect for big fish like snapper that tend to dry out. Keeps the moisture in. I've cooked 3-5kg fish such as Blue Morwong and Snapper this way and they have come up so succulent as good as 1-2kg pinkie.
Gut fish as you said then stuff with what ever you want. I do mushrooms bokchoy, lemon wedges, garlic, chilli and butter. Use a few toothpicks to hold gut contents together. Butter up some foil and cover around the whole fish.

Barby or if youve got a big oven 10-15mins each side. I usually tell when cooked when the eye of the fish has turned into a white stone. Then peel back skin and scales altogether.

Might need to borrow some of those legs off ya Ozdog. :P
