No to hijack a thread, But when you say Hali. are you talking about the heavy lures with the chain and hook? If I'm not mistakes Hali makes several types of lures... Thanks!!

thanks! One more question, With that style how can you feel the "negative" bite?

Solid gold

Blue and white glow and as I mentioned replace the chain and hook with a short piece of mono and tie on a small 14 treble....you will get more hook ups.

It always has seemed to me that if they're hitting, any color works! When it's hot it's hot! I usually stick with a pink and silver though.

Do they have any that glow?

Playin_Hooky · « **Reply #14 on:** Dec 23, 2010, 04:39 PM »

Yes they do have some that glow I personally like the Glow perch and the Pink and white glows work awesome too. But I am with Swampbuckster on this one. When they are biting I haven't found a color they won't bite.

I like the small sukkula orange and copper. but it looks more like orange and gold.

damanfrgr · « **Reply #17 on:** Dec 30, 2010, 04:53 PM »

I like the ones that the fish come out off the water on myself:)

Not to get off the topic, but how do you cook them ?

Use a pair of scissors to clean them.

1:Cut their head off

2:Cut a slice from the "belly" area to the anal vent with the scissors

3:Run your finger down from front to back to "clear" out their guts.

4:Take an old toothbrush and scrape the black buildup away from the inside of the rib cage

5: Batter them (I like beer battering) and deep fry them. Eat the tails, scales, bones and all. They are so small they just "crunch" like a tater chip when you bite down on them!

Well 1st go to local baitshop get as many as u like then bring home ....preheat oven to 360...then cook for 2 hrs after that remove them fr oven place into deep fryer at 365 fry for 2 to 3 min... untill golden brown ..well i guess at that point just shoot yourself in the head!!!???

there has got to be a better way some kind of collapsing net thing put down an 8 inch hole that expands and collapses around the smelt pull back up.

superslabs · « **Reply #26 on:** Dec 30, 2010, 08:48 PM »

Anything in glow.

That would be called "netting" not fishing
