Fish for Health
The Food Standards Agency recommends that we should be eating at least two portions of fish a week and one of these portions should be an oily fish, such as mackerel, salmon or trout. Fish and shellfish are rich in protein and minerals, and oily fish is rich in omega 3 fatty acids, which help prevent heart disease.
It has been suggested with evidence that on many occasions, oily fish can help fight certain cancers.

Introducing Healthy and Sustainable Fish into Your Diet
The nutrients, vitamins and oils in fish can also be found in other foods, so we do not need to over consume fish. For example, high levels of omega oils can be found in walnuts and walnut, flax and linseed oil.

I have not used this, but it could be a useful item for the kitchen
I have used a barbeque bucket for a few years now, both for camping, fishing and in the back garden. They are (based on my experience to date) simple, effective and safe. On the beach the charcoal is kept off the stones avoiding any chance of flints exploding and the inside bucket seperates the heat and so keeps the outside cooler (and therefore safer) to the touch.
