Today I smoked 13 Salmon tails and a couple small filets just to make room in the Salmon freezer.

By golly you make them look so good! Sadly I only had salmon once that I liked it...that was years ago.

A sportsman’s double, a smoker’s dozen, what’s the difference? Actually there were 13 tails and 2 small filets. Thanks to all for for the kind remarks. I got lots more Salmon to smoke in the near future. Stay tuned.


Here’s another pic while in the smoker

Some fine looking pink, the best thing to do with it! I fished Monterey to Bodega Bay 45 years, got to the point about the only time we'd have a salmon dinner was after the Monterey opener, stop off in Castroville for some fresh chokes, California cuisine at it's finest. Could never get enough of lings and rockfish, that's what I miss. RAY

Ray, I hear ya. I love eating Rock cod dishes, then Salmon but most of our Salmon is smoked or given away to friends, family, etc, along with the smoked Ling.
 
Thanks. I was a little skeptical due to the high winds and low temps around here, but it all worked out. Lots of finish product for upcoming smoked salmon with pasta, smoked salmon chowder, salmon log, etc.
