Well, I saw some steelhead trout at costco for a good price so I thought I would get some and try smoking it.

first pic, the fish was in the brine for 24 hours, rinsed, dryed and put on the smoker.

Looks like you did a nice job for 1st attempt at fish...
What wood did you use? I use alder & apple with Steelhead.
 
thanks for the replies, and yes it does tast good, out of three fillits that were in the pack there is only one left now. 

I cooked them in my bradley (long story) and I used 4 hours of there special blend then 3 hours of maple. 

Next batch is getting the crown royal smoke, unless i go buy some more pucks.
