Looking for a report on how Worthings has been fishing this week. Looking to get out this weekend if they are biting as well as other places. Thanks for the help.

Yeah, I've heard decent things about Bakers but it's just the wife and I so I was hoping to save a few bucks with a 2-man shack at Worthing's. I've never fished Bakers and didn't realize that they only had 4 and 6 man shacks.

Like any smelting...it can be hit or miss...I've fished Worthings before and pulled only a few but the shack across from me slaye 'em and vise versa.....good advice....rent a jigboard and keep changing depths and fresh bait if it is slow!!!

I've actually got my own jig boards that I built this fall and they seemed to work well when I went on New Years Eve, the fish just weren't there. We caught 2 dozen and it seemed like everyone else had a lot less than that. I may try Hallowell with the portable too.

Hit Riverbend with a buddy last night and it was pretty slow, only 2 dozen between the two of us.  Fun times though!!!

So all in all the smelt fishing is rather slow from what people are saying on here?Maybe next weekend i will try it,i need some bait(live bait) for derbys this year.Sea smelts always worked good for me in the past.

$40 for 2 people plus $2 for 1/2 dozen worms? Seems a little steep at $20/person. Is that normal?
