Lip-ripper Posted April 9, 2012 Report Share Posted April 9, 2012 It may not look like much, but that is an XL Timmies cup next to it! lol (Not the new elephantine XL cup, the old one, and you can see the XL marking on the bottom of it where it's squished.) Far and away the biggest smelt I've ever caught or even seen. I've heard of them getting that big in the great lakes but not that big around here. We ended up with a decent amount but they weren't running heavy. Not a super exciting report but a report none the less... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kickingfrog Posted April 9, 2012 Report Share Posted April 9, 2012 I think you should mount that one. Please make it a replica mount, that's a prime spawner. I haven't been smelting in years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Christopheraaron Posted April 9, 2012 Report Share Posted April 9, 2012 how do you eat em'? never had any myself not sure how they are in the great lakes but I say that the best way is just cut off the heads, then fry them in butter the bones are actually pretty nice and crispy, good to have for a breakfast.

Nipfisher Posted April 11, 2012 Report Share Posted April 11, 2012 Don't know if you measured that one Ryan, but here is some bigger ones from last night. Only the biggest one is from our secret creek. All others are from same place you were. Sink shot will be in the other Smelt thread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
