When I worked on fish farms, I used to do a lot of smoking.
Always hot smoke, never tried doing cold smoking.

I would brine my fish for 36 hours, as opposed to 8h like most.

I smoked various species of salmon, black cod, buffalo jerky, & beef jerky.

If you haven't tried smoked black cod, you gotta. I also found buffalo jerky waaaay tastier than beef jerky.

I have been smokin meats for about 10 years now, only have a bradley at this point but once the house is built on the new acerage a good size smoker is a priority....after the much larger tank that is..

When I used to smoke a lot I would drive around town on the weekends in the early spring and watch for people pruning their trees. You'd be surprised how much wood you can get on one nice weekend. Filled my truck up two or three times a day with all kinds of fruit woods and various hard woods.

thats a pretty nice build, I am trying to design mine now, going to have simular to what you have except maybe a tiny bit longer (not much) in a reverse flow but the exhaust is going to enter a verticle chamber above the fire box and I am trying to figure out a way to either take the heat from the fire box through the horazontle and then into the verticle so I can cold smoke, or a bypass system to go strait to the verticle so I can hot smoke in it to.
