smoked trout

I would like to try the "Salmon - Brined Appetizer" this weekend, however I was wondering if it would be possible to substitute trout for the salmon or even do both? If so, should I adjust the brining time and cooking time? I'm not much of a seafood expert and don't really know how much different in size the fillet pieces would be between salmon in trout. Also, I don't have any alder, only apple, should I adjust the quantity of wood.

Any advice is appreciated,

Chris
 
Chris - I've done lake trout and it turned out great. With smaller trout, I would consider slightly reducing the brining time as well as the expected cooking time. I used hickory one my last salmon smoke and it tasted great, so I think apple would work well.

Salmon is one of my favorite smokes, and my family loves it. too. Enjoy it!
