smerchly Posted February 15, 2023 Report Share Posted February 15, 2023 NOT looking good for "icing" smelts this year unless we take the canoe/yaks to our smelt holes .... The pike I caught at P.Dal. had 2 smelts in it's gut , so there may be some in the harbour feeding the trout also ? Or , did the pike get them from the lake recently ? They look fresh (could have saved them for dinner) ... I didn't pack the ice rods away, yet .....they are on "stand by" ....March can be a sob sometimes as we wait to get some action with the long rods. Ma nature is having another fit today, very unpredictable little woman !! Fish Farmer 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tyler0420 Posted February 15, 2023 Report Share Posted February 15, 2023 If you wanted smelts this season smerch you should’ve kept the two in the pike hahaha.

I will try today again with roe in the afternoon, river still mud. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
