Problem with getting more fish (sockeye) is ...I don't live on the west coast. But keeping an eye open for affordable wild salmon.

Looks nice!  I like the natural outdoor cooler.   How long was it in the smoker for?   Did you watch the IT temp?   A lots of yummy snacky stuff you got there.  Belchilicious.

A little over 3h. No IT check...I looked for "flakyness" and sign of "boogers".

For the record, catfish are excellent smoked. I live in trout country but we have large populations of channel cats in nearby waters. I fry channel cats that are under 20 inches, smoke bigger ones. Give it a shot if you don't have trout or salmon available.
