Smoking some Lake Trout today

I have about 10 lbs of Lake Trout fillets as a result of an outing a couple of weeks ago. Decided to try them smoked for the first taste. Took about 2 lbs and brined for 4 hours in a mix of kosher salt, brown sugar, and pickling spices. I sat them on a rack in front of a fan to generate a little bit of a pellicle. I now have them on the small at around 225 with apple wood for smoke. I have seen final IT recommendations of 140 and 180, so I will go by look as well as temp. I will post another pic once they are done.

Here it is. Took about 4 hours as the temp held around 200, I finally opened the vents to get the IT up to about 160.great flavor. I took one of the fillets and made it into smoked fish salad (think Chicken salad). Excellent - will be lunch for a couple of days. Not too fishy, nice smokiness.
