    Well, I suppose that if you can do it, and do it well, then go for it. Whoever made this seems to have the knack. My hat's off to them as I'll happily take your word that it was "yummy."

    My guess is they spent a lot more time fussing over their fish than most people are willing to dedicate and I will also point out that drying is not quite the same thing as smoking. Nevertheless, I won't argue with the apparent results.

    My experience has been that most people ruin their fish when they try to cut it in strips but, that's just my experience.

    Man that looks good!

    Sometimes what I do is cut the salmon (or other fish types) into halves and then strips, and smoke them until they are firm but not dry. I then peel off the skin and put them in a food dehydrator to take the moisture out. This way it is easy to not have to worry about over doing it, and the smoke does not over power the flavor. I don't always do it this way, but it is a fool proof option for the most part as you can simply set the timer on the dehydrator and leave for work or what have you.

    Hm that is a good idea. I have also tried freezing the fillets a bit to make them easier to cut into strips, gives them more substance.
    Why do I live in Alaska? Because I can.

    Memorial to Blade

    They call me Blade, and the reason they call me Blade is because I carry a terribly oversized knife that compensates for my short comings that I will never tell you about. I live in the swamp and my favorite hobby is using myself for bait by letting anacondas get me halfway into their stomachs before bringing out my razor sharp oversized knife and splitting their head just like a new radial tire in a beer joint parking lot on a Saturday night.
    Speaking of tires, I love to slice peoples tires that make me mad and that is because I can slice their tires and not have to get in a fight with them. If I ever got in a fight with somebody I would probably get hit and cry, so it is easier to just cut their tires and go home to hide for a few days.
    I live in a Keebler looking tree house that I carved with my oversized razor sharp knife. I got the idea off the internet and claimed that I came up with the design. Of course you will beleive everything I say and never dispute me because i am Blade, the ultimate survivor. If you ever dispute my word, I will join your forum and post weird untruthful stuff until it drives all of your members berserk. I will follow a fine line of posting things that shock and disgust the members, but not enough to get banned, at least for a while.
    I don't date girls because i have my knife, my Bussa my Mistress, and no girl could ever compete. Girls will not beleive everything I say, girls won't slash tires, girls wont stay in the swamp and play with anacondas, and girls just dont understand me at all. All of the girls I have dated were jealous of my knife and they dont last long because they know they are inferior.
    So with everything said, I am going to return to my swamp and go to sleep just daring those singing green anacondas to eat me like a sauteed gerbal right before I split their head.
    So come here green anaconda................green anaconda...................green anaconda!
    Oh, and another thing, all of those television survivalist, Green Berets, Navy Seals, ans SIS rejects know nothing about survival get it! I am the only one that truly knows survival so quit wasting your time reading books, lurking on survival forums, and watching TV. Come down here to my swamp and let me show you how to survive anaconda attacks, eat rats, skin a cat, split a snake, and you too can possibly become as totally awesome as me, that's probably impossible but everybody needs to try!

    Cool well now...

    They used to call me Blade, now they call me "Banned!"

    Why do they call me "Blade?" "Because somehow "Banana Brain" was already taken!

    You forgot to mention "the Mistress"

    Now THAT in itself, tells the whole story……..who the f#$k names a tool a 'mistress'?? I could get past all the chest beating and pissing comp stuff, but not the naming thing. Thats down right creepy.

    I'm 47 and I give my tools names, I've never been married, I dunno why…….You want to know about my big hammer………I call him………the terminator…………I smash car windscreens with him, when someone looks at me funny.

    Busse makes a knife called the Battle Mistress. That is what Blade claimed he used.

    Well, stupid is as stupid does, but Blade was "reality TV stupid"!

    I don't name guns, or knives, or cars, or things I plant to kill and eat.
    If you didn't bring jerky what did I just eat?

    Do you guys brine your trout and salmon before smoking? I do, and I also rub a dry mix of herbs, chilli and brown sugar on the inside and outside when hot smoking. They come out real good!
