Hey guys (and gals?)

I've been smoking for a few years and having a lot of fun doing it. I decided to go BIGGER this year due to the record sockeye run we had in Vancouver Canada this year. I just built my first plywood smoker and had great success with it so far, there's always room for improvement though. Looking forward to talking with some folks that are as passionate as I am about this stuff.

Welcome City Boy!

You have a nice mess of Reds there. I caught several Chinook and a few Silvers in Oregon this fall but have never had Sockeye to smoke. I have been told they are great. I have caught and smoked a lot of Kokanee which are the same fish but lived in fresh water only. Have you had both and if is there much difference in flavor?

I've only ever grilled Kokanee when camping. I don't think they can compare to the delicious oiliness and girth in the ocean salmon. But I love it all!!! Thanks for your welcome
