Amazing work S&P. Looks like you have the process down to a science.

Why do you cut them in half for the platters where they would fit whole?

Looks nice so far and I'm very interested in your process.
Might I suggest that you post only to this thread as you proceed?
Starting a new thread for each step is very distracting for this reader and will be cumbersome for those of us who wish to try this for ourselves.

I cut them in half so they will fit in food saver bags. I give most of them away so my friends can enjoy them too.
My fishing partner also smokes fish and the next bunch we catch will be his to smoke, Then we share our final product with each other.
Just would like people to know that we only keep enough trout to do our spring smoking. After that, we throw them back. Then, its time to fill the freezer with walleye.

Smoking Trout Step 5
When the pellicle is developed the fish is shinny and sticky.

Smoking Trout, step 1
salt and pepper
It's that time of the year when the ice leaves the lakes here in Montana. It's time for Trout fishing. The cold water produces a solid and firm fillet, just right for smoking. And the size of the fish comes into play. For smoking fillets I like to keep fish around 20" and return the smaller fish into the lake. So, the first step is to acquire the fish and start the prep. The fish will be filleted leaving the skin on then the pin bones removed.
At the moment, I have 6 fresh trout (4 in the pic) that should fill up my smoker, just right till the next batch!
As I continue the process, I will add the recipe and photo's for each step if anyone is interested.[IMG]http://www.discusscooking.com/forums/members/39817-albums960-picture5456.jpg[/IMG]
