I hot smoke quite a lot of fish so it must be easy.

smoked trout, smoked whitefish, smoked salmon--all big yayys! but let's not leave out smoked EEL--so fatty, so delicious! but rare to find lately (for me anyway) except for the canned variety. smoked lamprey, also....
I love smoked eel. But, I found out the hard way that I shouldn't eat too much at one sitting. It's awfully rich.smoked trout, smoked whitefish, smoked salmon--all big yayys! but let's not leave out smoked EEL--so fatty, so delicious! but rare to find lately (for me anyway) except for the canned variety. smoked lamprey, also....

Ewwwwww. Lampreys. This is the most disgusting fish I could ever imagine. They stick on and suck the native fish dry. I remember when I was a kid, reading about them, and was totaly grossed out back then too.Chief Longwind Of The North said:We have an abundance of lamprey in the great lakes region. Saldly, since they prey on our lake fish, they are loaded with contaminants, you know, heavy metals, dioxins, etc. We aren't supposed to eat them. And it's too bad. They have to be controlled with lampricides to keep them from destroying our natural fish populations.
I wish we could eat them. I bet they are delicious.
Seeeeeeya; Chief Longwind of the North
