Barbequed fish

Can anyone give me some great recipes for fish cooked on a barbeque? I have family coming down for Easter, thought we could barbie on Good Friday but can't cook meat. Was thinking of maybe salmon or monkfish with some other bits but wanted ideas for marinades/sauces etc - need to feed 11 people.
Thanks

Mackerel is lovely on the barbecue. Fillited fish (but still stuck together, not two separate fillets IYSWIM), some sprigs of thyme and plenty of salt and pepper inside, drizzle with a little olive oil and grill until the skin goes lovely and crispy. I just used to use thyme because it was the herb growing best in the garden, other things would probably be nice too. Serve with plenty of lemon wedges.

We also got a special fish-shaped barbecue cage thing for cooking the fish, so you can just turn the tool rather than trying to turn fish - I expect that without this I'd have ended up with many fish falling to bits and dropping through the gaps!

King prawns and other seafood/veg bits on skewers could be good too.

Mackerel sounds great - I guess your method would transfer to most types of fish? Am planning on going down to the fish market on the day and seeing what they have got. Top tip to get the cage thingy - will go to the garden centre later. Thanks.
