In another container, soak wood chips in 2 to 3 cups of the red wine mixture. Prepare to cook with indirect heat (briquets on two sides) If using gas grill, turn off the heat in the center of the grill. Drain the chips, sprinkle them on the coals (If using gas grill, put chips in a smoke box or foil pan directly on the heat in a corner, as the barbecue heats. Lift the fish and plank from the liquid. Lay fish on plank, skin down, and top with rosemary, marjoram, and thyme. Set plank and fish on grill. Cover open vents and cook 10 minutes. If cooking corn on the cob, add now and continue cooking for another 15 - 20 minutes. Cook fish until it is barely opaque, but moist looking in the center of the thickest part. Remove fish, add salt, pepper, and lemon to taste.

My first trip to Tanaku Lodge was an executive retreat in 1998. Dennis and Jim's staff were incredibly responsive. The folks at Tanaku were focused on each individual's needs and did everything possible to accommodate our group. The lodge is great, the food fantastic, and the crew very friendly. Many of us have since been back a second time, and this July will be our 3rd trip.
