I love smelt! When it's available down here at a store, we buy about 20# and freeze packages of it. We do about 2# at a pop in a cast iron skillet, on our grill.

I don't think I tired it maybe beyond once I just can't eat a whole tiny fish.

We get chubs to smoke. Friends who own a place in Northeast Texas. He goes up there four or five times a year, and brings me back a nice mess of them to smoke. He brings the fish, I do the smoking, and we split them 50/50. Our smelt we fry in the cast iron fry pan. Simple scissors the heads off, slit them, gut them, rinse them well in salt water, then what we eat gets pan fried, that which we'll freeze goes into small coffee cans in water for a later date. We haven't got any this year. They just weren't available.

We eat fish 3-4 nights a week. Salmon, Covina are reasonably priced. Try and get fresh Halibut when it’s available. And the shrimp at Costco are outstanding

Never tried the shrimp from Costco. I could eat blackened salmon daily.

Love smelt. Haven't had it years but loved smelting and then eating the heck out of them. A little seasoned flour batter and fry them babies up in some oil.
