Default smoked whitefish recipe

Got some whites to smoke, but it's been quite a while since I did any. Used to use just a mix of brown sugar and rock salt but I can't remember the proportions. Anybody got a good recipe?

Where do you live?

Im firing up the smoker tomorrow for a rack of ribs and could add some whites. Was even thinking about taking the smoker to the lake to go fishing while the ribs smoke away

For my sockeye, it was 1 cup salt to 4 cups brown sugar.

Do not use rock salt.
It contains minerals that might give metallic taste to fish.
Use pickling or kosher salt.

I've done salmon using the salt and brown sugar, will it work on other kinds of fish, like Jack or walleye?

4 cups of dark sugar 1 cup of salt. Some like to add 10-15 cloves of garlic.
Should work for all fish.
Tried on salmon, whitefish and goldeye.
