Welcome to the stage. I've only smelt fished in Chicago on Lake Michigan.
I thought it was just a Great Lakes thing.
Smelt fishing was from 9PM - 9AM. We threw in the net, built a fire, drank beer, BBQ'd, and hoped we didn't have to pull fish out of the net. We were young and dumb.
How does smelt fishing work out west in the river?

been a very long time for me but as I recall (1978) in Oregon a dip net from shore or wading on a 10 -12 foot pole with a 25 pound limit
