We've had some conversations here before on drying foods. Perhaps this file
in the FOOD section of my files might be of interest:
drying-foods-msg  (35K)  8/24/99    Drying foods in period and for the SCA.

I don't know if you can dry fish in a dehydrator or not, but if so maybe
this file and it's recipes might be of interest:
stockfish-msg     (81K)  5/26/00    Period preserved fish. Dried, smoked
and 
                                       salted fish. Recipes.
