I bought myself a gasmate smoker oven that runs off a 9kg gas bottle a couple of months ago to get away from the one I usually use that runs on meths. Yesterday I caught a nice 3.5Kg trevally that was too big to fit on racks in the smoker oven and it was the first fish to be smoked in there as all I have done in it is beef jerky some sausages and a whole chook. I made up some hanging hooks out of #8 wire I got from work out of the fire pile after the wire had been burnt and hung the trevally from that but it fell off one of the hooks so how do I prevent this from happening in the future, I put the hooks in through the pectoral fins from the inside of the fish and this is where it fell off one of the hooks halfway through being smoked, should I have left the fish salting overnight as I did stick it in the smoker as soon as I got home from the beach.
