Dondo Bones...

Yea...that's the beauty of smoking it...you take a fish that usually doesn't last very long...Smoke it...vacuum pack it and it's good for another 6 months in a good cold freezer.
Maple syrup and brown sugar dipped...anything would taste great...LOL

Tony made some Alaskan salmon with the honey sugar recipe, it was the best smoked fish I've ever had.

I'm hoping the Bixpy will go on sale black Friday or Cyber Monday, I'd really like to have one of those so that I can extend my fishing range

Jim, do you have any video or pics of how exactly you spike the bones?

[katchfish]

Not Jim, and no video

I just rough filet them on the water, then into a cooler with ice.

I got lazy-er this time and just sprinkled on some Tony's



And, let 'em get happy in the fridge over night.

200º for two hours, apple wood for smoke. Indirect on the Weber.

As Jim said, great with beer

Needlenose to the brain. The goal of spiking them is to keep them from flopping around and bruising the meat while they bleed out. A bruise will hold blood and make the meat games. Once they are bled, get them on ice

I caught a couple trash tuna the other day. you're right though you have to baby the crap out of them to make them taste good. slit the gill membranes and toss em in a bucket so they bleed out, then I gut em and remove the heads like a tuna. then ICE.
