After eating Fraser River Sockeye, everything else is...ok?

Chums are very high in oil. That's why some like to smoke them, I do, It's hard to over smoke them.

If brined right and the fish still has some good shine to it, they will smoke just fine with Alder chips.

The "BEST" way to tell if it's too old? Shake it, If the meat falls off, it's too old
