Catching and Cooking Fish and Shellfish - Smoking Mackerel Fillets

There is nothing quite like eating the fish or shellfish that you have caught yourself. The flavours are superb. There are many ways to cook Mackerel and smoking is one of them. I have a small home smoker and smoking a few Mackerel occasionally is a lot of fun.
