Just got a Bradley digital...

Fisherman Ron · August 28, 2009, 04:14:05 PM

I've just recently purchased a Bradley digital and want to try it out on a couple of channel cats I caught today, fished for these especially because of this...

I know a little about fishing, but nothing about smoking the catch other than the little blurbs I catch here and there...

Any suggestions from those of you who know more about this on a good brine and smoke type for catfish ???

Thanks...

Ron

Welcome to the fun of smoking

My brother loves smoked cats we just through the fish in some salt water after its ben cleaned (i dont measure the salt i just add till it tastes right) let soak for an hr or two rinse and pat dry, lay on racks put in front of a fan till dry to the touch then start the smoker at 220 F when the smoker is up to temp smoke with 2 hr Alder cook till the fish flakes when you twist a fork in it. We only smoke the small ones, to me the 2 to 4 pounders are the best.
