They’re running in Duluth and Superior. Go get’m!

Sounds like I’ve been missing out. Any news on the lake temp. and all… I hear smelting season is almost here. (I’ve been saying that since Jan… haha!)

Anyone wanting to get rid of a christainsen net? I have me a seine net, that’s 4″X25″… however, I haven’t been very skilled at it. In the past the net tangles up in the middle as we are close to the shore… any ideas how I can fix this? Should I try more sinkers on the bottom…??? Thanks!

superiorfishing, what exactly is a smelt fry?

Jmarksman, I hear the water is still a little cold. Some friends tested the water 2 nights ago and it was a miss. However, that was 2 nights ago. I’ve been dying to smelt this year for some crazy reason. A buddy and I were thinking we’d still test the waters tomorrow night… However, we’ll wait for more news from you. Thanks!

Mark, Thanks for the image. Looks like we still have some time before we can get our hands dirty. Time is definitely near. I am super duper excited!!

Any news…?

What’s the additional license you need on top of your regular fishing license in order to smelt…? I can’t recall. Thanks!

mbenson, your right. I am too excited. I haven’t been as fortunate in the past years as I have this year… this year I will have more time to do some real fishing. If you see or hear anything, def do some shout outs.. thanks!

How’s it looking like by the bay area there guys…? Does it look like we will get lucky this year and have a few good run this year?

Thanks!

Awesome website Jim. I will have to convence a few friends for a guided tour sometime in the near future. Will definitely be looking through your website for pointers. Thanks!

Thanks gang! It’s tough to find forums nowadays with welcoming and positive feedback.

Grant, definitely keep me posted if you get out.

Mark, thanks for the suggestion. Could someone tell me where Chequamegon is… that’s new to me.

Thanks KWP! Hopefully this spring they will run a little.
