Depends how long the barbeque has left to burn. Fastest time from sea to
plate was just a tad under 10 mins which I don't think you could achieve
if you are 'playing' the fish with light tackle.

Why is the unhooking, killing, gutting and dropping onto BBQ process faster
if the fish is lifted from the water on a 50lb feather snood rather than a
6lb bs straight through freeline?

Cheerio,

Because you're not playing the fish for five minutes before you lift it,
I suppose I should have said from strike to plate really. It also helps
if you have a fully occupied 6 hook set of feathers if you're feeding
several people which I think you would have difficulty retrieving on the
rig you mention.

I see.

If I ever want to feed a horde on mackerel at short notice I don't rely on
shore fishing.

Cheerio,
