Place 11/2 to 2 tablespoons of wood chips in the bottom of smoker. Place the tray on top. With a brush, lightly oil the grate so the fish doesn't stick
Ask a question about this stepSalt the fish, inside the cavity and outside (stuff with some fresh herbs if you like, used a few rosemary sprigs). Place the smoker on your stovetop over medium heat for a few minutes to heat up (when you see the first signs of smoke it's ready). Set the fish inside, then smoke for about 22-25 minutes (depending on the size of your fish). Approximately 22 minutes for an 11-12 ounce fish; 25 minutes for a 13-14 ounce fish. Serve with the grill mark-side up.
