Does anyone have experience to cold smoke halibut?

Yesterday I was able to get 6 pounds of Halibut for $6.99 per pound. Considering that standard price at any store where you can find this fish is $18-24 per pound - I got a very nice deal.
I always wanted to cold smoke halibut but am not sure that this is has to be the same process as cold smoking salmon... Does anyone have any experience to cold smoking halibut?

I have not smoked halibut - i can buy it hot smoked for a cost less than fresh.

I can tell you however that it tastes great hot smoked.

I think the cold smoking process would be the same: brine, dry, smoke. I am not sure it the sugar in the salmon brine would work for halibut.

Man that is a steal on the halibut. Never smoked it before but a good idea. Usually grill it. Wife's favorite fish.

Many recipes I reviews online are asking for quarter/third of sugar in the mix with salt.... Talking about process... - you maybe right but considering that salmon and halibut have different texture, they may require a slightly different process in brining/smoking...
