Looking for a brine recipe for sunfish and perch. I am going to smokle them. I usually use a mixture of 1 part seasoned salt and 3 parts brown sugar. But I was wondering if anyone had a killer recipe they would be willing to share/

  Yep.
  
  1 gallon water
  1 cup pickling salt
  1 cup brown sugar
  1/2 cup soy sauce
  
  That's it. Very easy and basic brine. I have used it on Salmon, Chickens, Turkey... anything I want to brine. I prefer to smoke fish over Cherry wood. Sweet and mild smoke.

  Thanks, I will give it a try this week! I usually use alder or cherry but I am just a novice, so I'm not sure how much of a difference I would be able to tell between the different woods.
