I belive the law say S1 closed to taking smelts
Yep...fishing surveyor is right. Found it in the law book. I have one of the steel mesh minnow traps. I have had good luck using dog food as bait in the warmer months. I figured that if I was going to be up there for a whole week, I could save some money by catching a few myself.
Let me know when you catch a smelt in a bait trap, it will be a first for me.
I wasn't specifically targeting smelt...I just didn't want to get in trouble if a warden saw my trap in the water.
Don't worry about it smelt don't go any where near bait traps. You will never catch one in it.
