I never seen a person fishing for smelt. We use a dip net when they are running in the rivers. When they are in good 2 or 3 dips will fill a 5 gallon bucket. I prefer them smoked. They are also the best sturgeon bait there is.ez14.":830ad4ld said:Smelt! Tastes real good! Never been smelt fishing thoughgreybeard":830ad4ld said:I can't say we're missing much Jo. But you can still go. Evidently all you need is a Ronco Pocket Fisherman and a sledgehammer to knock a hole in the ice.
At first, I thought this was bait, but seems it's 'a thing' up there to catch. Fishing for minnows...who knew?
