lew Posted April 3, 2013 Report Share Posted April 3, 2013 That feed of smelts sure does look good and brings back lotsa memories. For years we'd go down the Lake O shoreline and fill a few buckets, then go home and fry them up and have a feast. Haven't done it for probably 40 years now but I still remember how good they tasted.

Jen Posted April 6, 2013 Report Share Posted April 6, 2013 We catch them one by one while ice fishing, it passes the time and great way to compete... little red yarn in the tackle box always saves the day when the bite is slow... and makes for a yummy meal when you get home. Looks like you had a great treat! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rod Caster Posted April 6, 2013 Report Share Posted April 6, 2013 I used up the last of my smelts fishing for lakers in February. I'm hoping we can pin down the run again this year...speaking of which, I need to visit somebody with a bag of "land-use walleye" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beans Posted April 6, 2013 Report Share Posted April 6, 2013 They used to be in Wilmot Creek as thick as thieves about the same time trout season opened...could alway grab a few for a feed if the trout didn't co-operate...(fifty years ago) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
