Good looking fish Atomic.....  My favorite fish are Sockeye, White King Salmon, Black Sea Bass and Walleye....  Sockeye being #1...  an awesome flavored fish....   the other 3 are tied for #2.....   Enjoy your upcoming tasting fest....  
 
Being in the Northwest, even though we're landlocked, I can occcasionally get sockeye filets for $8 a pound. I usually smoke around 20# every winter. I need it to warm up so I can get started on this year's supply!
 
Man I envy you guys!

I get my salmon at Sam's!

Once in a while they will have wild caught steelhead, but it's mostly farmed salmon.

When I moved to Eastern Washington, that's when I modded my smoker with a 1500 watt table top element...   I smoked a lot of fish when it was below 20 deg. F....
 
I find sockeye has a lox-like texture even when hot smoked. Unlike trout and Atlantic salmon which flake.
