If you have never smoked fish before, this link may give you one cook's view of how to go about it, along with a variety of brine recipes: http://bbq.about.com/cs/fish/a/aa030400a.htmWith what little smoking I have done over the years, I favored the sweeter apple wood over the slightly bitter hickory. Are you fishing for carp or suckers? Both are excellent smoked, but I prefer suckers pickled. I let the experts in my neighborhood do both for me - an older man does the smoke house thing, and a friend of mines' mother does the pickling. Their brine recipes are know to no one else but them.

I have smoked hundreds of fish, and I find that hickory is the best.. apple, cherry and alder add very little to no flavor to the fish. whereas the hickoy adds a little more.. mesquite is to strong and bitter for fish..
I disagree with just about everything that the above link says..except the final temp of 165 degrees.. the brine time is too short, the smoke time is too short, you never add water or liquid to a brine..(the purpose of smoking is to reduce the water and liquids in the fish, without cooking out the oils, so why would you add water to it??) unless you are cooking it to eat that way as a main dish.. but to smoke to enjoy 'dried' i would not add any liquids, stick with a dry brine.

I never smoke fish, they're too hard to light.
