Has anyone ever smoked kokanee?  I love tha taste of the fish fresh, but I caught more than I can eat in one sitting, so I think I will try to smoke the extras.  I will try a hickory chip smoke this time, but I would like to hear from anyone who has had success with a different method.

I use apple and cherry chip combo.  In my brine I also put whole cloves and all spice berrys to add more flavor.

Love kokes smoked.
Love it. I lik the natural flavor of the fish . I go with a basic brine, not to strong! Water, salt, soy sauce, little brown sugar, pepper.

Smoked with Alder Chips!

Amazing feast! You can taste all those natural oils in the fish.

Yum.

Any kind of fruit or nut wood will do.  I recommend brining, and don't overdo the smoke.

This is my favorite. The best.

I too love the natural flavor. Basic brine. Not too strong, and i too love alder wood. Great for kokes.
