I don't know what the hell bassa is but it looks good.
Are you a greek mispronouncing Bass?

Looks EXCELLENT!

What did you do to prep said fish?
I'm SURE others would like to know as well as it appears SUPERIOR.

I brine the fish overnight using

1 gal water
1 cup kosher salt
1 cup brown sugar
1 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp onion powder
1 tsp hot sauce
1/2 cup soy sauce
2 bay leafs

Heat and simmer for 15 min. let cool and brine overnight towel and air dry fillets. Smoke at 225 with apple and alder. for 2 1/2 to 3 hours about half way through baste with equal parts maple syrup and honey

Thanks for sharing the Q View with us, I love smoked fish, hot or cold smoked. Nice ventilation system you've got there.
