Minnesota Fishing Reports : Minnesota Fishing Tournaments : Minnesota Fishing Leagues

That sounds like a lot of smelt, so that's great. When I cleaned my smelt, I averaged 8-10 dozen per gallon, but cleaned you should be able to get more to a bag.  Either way, considering that's a lot and we gave away several gallons too.  We must have had over 15 gallons of smelt and that's not a bad day. 

Yeah we know how cleaning that many takes a while and gets to be enough smelt for a day. 

Sound like a lot of good sized smelt too.  5 over 12 inches is great. 

I am glad there were no cohos, walleyes or muskies in there..  Just kidding..  We would have seen them. 

Well when are you going to put your chef's hat on and cook up a batch of smelt?  I am going to have some this week.  The deep fryer is posed in the kitchen and with it a recipe and fresh oil.  I'll post you on how they turn out. 

That's great.  Well it's my turn this week. 

Again it was great to meet you Mr. Aqua..
