Bagels w/Smoked Salmon and Whitefish Salad

I will preface this review by saying that I grew up in a "white bread, meat and potatoes" environment. And I am not big on the flavor of smoked food. Which means that I probably never would have made this dish. But my daughter was going through my cookbooks one week-end morning and picked this recipe to make. So off we went to the grocery store, picked up the smoked salmon and smoked whitefish it called for, and headed home. And we all loved it. I liked the flavor of the whitefish so much that I am looking for other things to do with it.

One little warning -- be judicious with the addition of salt.
