My daughter caught a 36" striped bass yesterday and her friend's Dad sent her home with 5 lbs. of FRESH striped bass. We used 1/2 of it and employed this recipe. We marinated the fish for approximately 1.5 hours, and grilled it on our gas grill. I poured the excess marinade over the fish while cooking. It was great! Cooked at a fairly high heat but it stayed moist and had a lovely flavor. The marinade smelled strong while I was making it but don't fear, this fish can stand up to it. The result was flavorful, but balanced. Highly recommend. If you can just get it THIS fresh...

Restaurant quality. Not only was it easy to prepare, it was downright simple -- even a caveman could do it. I didn't think 1 hour marinating time would be enough, but that was all the time I could afford. It was outstanding. But, next time I'll cook it in a BBQ basket. My fish fell apart on the grill. That's why there isn't a picture! I heated up the leftover fish for 1 minute in the microwave the next day. It still tasted like restaurant quality. I never had rock fish this good.
