Learn how I use willow sticks to build a latticework for cooking fish over a fire. With this method the fish is held securely and can be turned over and cooked on all sides.

    @MasterA55a55in
    I would serve the fish as I have in the video and make some kind of spinach dish to accompany it myself :)

  8. normalil says:

  9. 1011aleksandra says:

    Do not cook the spices with oil, you will regret!

  10. OriginalNakedChef says:

    @x4disaster
    Lets just say you need to be careful when cooking with hot oil :)

  11. OriginalNakedChef says:

  21. shereenaleesha says:

    Woooo just did this and added onions parsley and cheese.. AMAZING!!. Best dish i have ever made.. So simple thankyou!

  22. Espenji says:

    Yummy but you shoulda served it with something.

  23. OriginalNakedChef says:

    @patnarutorukia
    You could change the vinegar if you want to; it will slightly alter the flavour but should still taste nice.
    Good luck with the dish :)
    OriginalNakedChef

  24. patnarutorukia says:

    this looks delicious! I will go out and get the ingredients today :) instead of red win vinegar could I sub it for something else? would pure white vinegar work?

  25. 1225hunter says:

    Thanks for the video, does your Mora 911 have a custom sheath?

  26. phreshayr says:

    @banjoplayinbullfrog Yes. The knife is a Mora #911. A great knife VERY much worth the nominal cost. In spite of the famous saying “you get what you pay for” in this case you get much MORE than you pay for.

  27. banjoplayinbullfrog says:

    @phreshayr is that a mora of sweden knife?

  28. phreshayr says:

    @BruceMichaelAnderson Still hard to beat a good fried fresh caught fish though. It’s fun cooking it the way I did and like you said it does enable one to pack in much lighter. Another couple fun ways of cooking the fish would be to steam it underground on hot rocks or to wrap in clay and bake it in the open coals of the fire. Take care and enjoy your fishing trips.

  29. BruceMichaelAnderson says:

    I do like to get out when I can and hike and fish small creeks off lakes , I have packed in sea Salt to pack my catch out with to keep it from going bad..I have never tried this Idea yet I will have to give it a try.this looks to be a Much better Idea then packing in and out cooking oil and cooking gear…

  30. phreshayr says:

    @TheHighlanderGirl Thank you. It would be an honor I’m sure.

  31. TheHighlanderGirl says:

    You can be my camp guide any time! Self sufficiency in motion. :)

  32. phreshayr says:

    @gidinceanu I agree that it is pretty good.

  33. gidinceanu says:

    fish cooked like this is amazing, the best flavour!

  34. phreshayr says:

    @silverbullet211 Yes it comes out pretty good. My wife and I didn’t season our fish when we did this video so it didn’t taste as good as it could have but it was actually pretty good. If some good seasoning is used the fish can be quite good.

  35. silverbullet211 says:

    @phreshayr that makes sense, does it come out pretty good like this? ive seen some videos of people throwin a fish right on some coals after gutting….

  36. phreshayr says:

    @silverbullet211 In my experience it really isn’t worth it to fillet a fish this small. It’s just easier to cook gutted and whole. The way I fillet, I would end up wasting half the fish this small. On a larger fish, yes I would fillet that before cooking in this fashion.

  37. silverbullet211 says:

    i like the thing you made to cook the fish on but id recommend filleting that up and it will probably come out a little better, thats just what i do, never really tried cooking one whole because ive always had a knife

  38. phreshayr says:

    @95smileygirl You are welcome smiley. Thanks for watching.

  39. 95smileygirl says:

    thanks! Dude this vid is epic!

  40. phreshayr says:

    @sdkkrew Sounds like it might be worth trying sometime.

  41. sdkkrew says:

    @phreshayr Ive cooked by hanging fish in a similar way to what you guys are talking about. I didn’t use rope though, i used a malleable piece of thin wire to suspend the fish. In many cases i think a rope would burn as you guys have said, stick with wire.

  42. phreshayr says:

    @Animehem Ok thanks for the reply. I would be interested to see what it looks like if you ever do come across more info on the web. I can’t picture what it is you are describing.

  43. Animehem says:

    @phreshayr Im not familiar either i saw someone in a neighboring campsite cooking this way. The cord he used was not a natural fiber but it may have been wet. I cant find info anywhere about it; I actually found your video while searching. It was like a rotisery stand but the beam across the top of the fire wasnt moving it just had fish tied up by the tail hanging near the fire. I thought it was strange because the stand was behind the fire, maybe it was up wind of the fire idk.

  44. phreshayr says:

    @Animehem I’m not familiar with the method you mention. Could you tells us more about it or where to find info on it? I would think that the cord would need to be a natural fiber and not a synthetic. As long as the temperature anywhere along the cord or stand stays below the burning point temperature it won’t burn.  I’m not familiar with this method but I would guess that also soaking the cord in water before hand would also help keep it below the burning point.

  45. Animehem says:

    has anyone seen the method when you tie the fish up by the tail over a fire and have them on a wooden stand behind it how do you do that without burning the rope or stand? the rope used was thin like that 550 army cord

  46. phreshayr says:

    @Randomwowwow To cook a larger bodied fish such as pike which would take longer cooking times, it would be better to use the “plank” method or to cook it underground. I don’t have videos out yet on either of these methods so if you are not familiar with them try a Google search for “plank cook fish fire” and “Pit Cooking”. Hope this helps

  47. phreshayr says:

    @Randomwowwow Thank you very much

  48. phreshayr says:

    @Randomwowwow Thank You.

  49. Randomwowwow says:

    Would it work with pike?
