Smelt Sanctuary

[Muskieman]

I just got back from looking for Smelts in the Sturgeon River.. .

 

WOW!!!! Never have I seen Smelts like that!!!! Wave on Wave.... and it's still very early... ! could imagine what it will look like later.

 

One would be able to fill a 5 gallon pain in minutes.

 

Not so many Walleye though ... seen about 7 of 'em.

 

Sturgeon River is Sanctuary... 'til opener.

 

With the abundance of these little fish they could let us fish for 'em.

 

Now this terrible picture doesn't do it any justice....
