Smoked Crappie. Anyone done some?

[Hunt'nFish]

Just curious if anyone had smoked any crappies and how they were.
Just finished smoking up a few steelhead and it got me to thinking about other fish.
Was kinda thinking about try'n to smoke some on the river this summer for a cheese & cracker wine feast one night.
Skin on, overnight brine in 2:1 brown sugar & salt, 2hr smoke (couple pan of chips), heat only to finish.
Thoughts?

Some of the guys over here do it. They turn out ok, sometimes a little dry. The 2 hr smoke should turn out really good.

I don't know about crappie but some's friends in Montana used to smoke att the perch they caught. They were very good!

It's tasty..can get dry and does not quite have the fat content to moisten and hold the smoke. Baste the fillets or use a beer pan in the bottom of your smoker for moisture.

Anything can be smoked!!
