I have never used barrel wood befoe but have soaked wood chips in wine before and it turned out great. I would not be afraid to give it a tryRobert

Smoking is the only way I can eat salmon or trout. Those two fish are just nasty. Its like eating carp. I can't believe what people pay for this kind of fish. :lol:

You've obviously never eaten Rocky Mountain Sushi my friend. You haven't lived until you've prepared sashimi in the way back with wild trout you just caught.

You can hop but you can't hide. Yahi Bowmen. Its not how far you can shoot but how close to the game you get when you shoot. Sights we don't need any sights. Why waist time reloading when I can be making arrows.

I've said it before, and I will say it again. If you know how to prepare carp it is good eating. As far as trout and salmon being nasty ... what fish DO you like?

Bass, walleye, catfish, panfish. People out here sh-t themselves when they see you put a 2lb bass on a stringer. I could understand if it was a big breeder but just wait until all they are catching is 1-2lb fish then they'll realize they should have culled the little bastards.

I heard of a way thats been around for years to fix carp. It requires cedar planks, you clean the carp and remove as many bones as you can, then strech the filet over the cedar plank and nail it down with tacks. Put salt and lots of red pepper on the meat. Throw it out in the hot sunshine for a day to "cure" it, then bring it in, remove the fish, throw away the carp, and eat the plank!Good stuff maynard...Jack

To smoke fish you filet with the skin on. Then in a pot mix about a 1/2 lb of sugar and 1/2 lb of non-iodized salt. Mix in a few quarts of water and try and get all the solids in solution. Then put your fish in and soak overnight (at least). The next day take it out and put it on a rack to dry. You just want the outside not to be wet. Then burn your coals down and take soaked alder chips and put them on the hot coals. Let it smoke a couple of hours. You are not looking for heat but rather let the smoke do the cooking. You may need to light more coals and put those in. On top more soaked chips. I will let 5-8 lbs of fish smoke for about six hours, low and slow.When its done it will be moist and tasty!!! I do this with salmon, tuna, albie, or halibut. WSB is particularly good this way.
