Nothing better then smelting. Brings me back to my younger years. Grandma in the kitchen cooking pan fulls of them in flour and oil! So crunchy and delicious!
So good
Nothing better than fresh smelts
Other than freshly cleaned beaver 😆
🤤
Murda we used to net them where the rivers went into georgan bay back in the day up here in Ontario Canada used to be lots
My dad
Brings up smelt fishing every year.
We from Michigan.
Kicking myself for never making a trip to go with him.
Take Adventures and advantages… always.
Nice see you guys laugh while you eat them little swimmers.
Cute boys. Thank you.
😊 I smiled pretty much the whole time.
Cool video. Smelting is a lost art. Smelt fry are hard to find.
Glad you enjoyed
My dad and uncle used to feed the family doing this in Wisconsin as kids. awesome video.
Very cool!
Smelt are a saltwater fish that escaped from a small lake in MI which was close to Lake Michigan around the 1900s I believe. There's a video on here with a old man doing a power point presentation on the history of smelt in the great lakes. It's very interesting, even to someone like me who doesn't fish. I ended up coming across it looking at Lake Michigan shipwreck history and it was a suggested video that I just clicked on. I would highly recommend watching it if you come across it
Back in the day, we left the heads on them. Thanks for stirring up old memories Murf !
Glad you enjoyed it
Nothing better to end the day with fishnmore video
🤜🤛
had to scoop a hat as soon as i saw it! keep up the awesome vids and hard work 👊
Another fine episode! Keep em comin! Gun
Thanks for watching
Keep the videos coming! I look forward to them. Lol send me a hat or shirt with your logo fishnmor.
Super cool video.
Word Murda on a Sunday is the best!! Got my food ready as well Time to relax and enjoy this awesomeness bro!!! 🤘🏿🔥
🙌
Many many years ago my father & his parents would fill a 5gallon bucket with smelts and feast on them. My grandfather’s favorite snack was sardines, he ate them everyday. He would eat 2-3 cans while deer hunting.
Thanks for sharing 👍 😊
We were on Park point a week ago brought home 33 gallons of the tasty smelt . Cleaned them all day on Sunday. Ate alot of them too . I save some of the heads I sprinkle garlic salt on them and put in the freezer. They make excellent bait
Aw man I LOVE smelts. In honor of you and your channel I’m going to run them as a special where I work. Super tasty and lots of great nutritional value. Rock on! PS- I need to know the song “about the older lady” 😂 Seriously tho. My wife lerves her some country
Like number 954. We use to dip net the smelt in Michigan they were so thick. You could fill a 5 gallon bucket in 3 or for dips. We would dip them in beer batter and eat them like French fries. I love them dipped in ketchup or tartar sauce👍🏻💛🙏🏻
Holy!!!
@@FishNMoreYes😂
🍿 and Sprite ready!!!! Love Sundays!!!❤❤
🤜🤛
Love watching your videos Murda!!
Can’t wait till I can get out this summer and start fishing. Don’t know if there are Walleyes here in Massachusetts? I’ve watched almost every video you’ve put out and I’m real curious to what they taste like.
My favorite fish to eat from a lake is Bass and from the ocean I love Bluefish my Mom used to make a chowder with my Dad. It’s bomb.
Hope you have a great rest of your day, and hit this like if you’re another girl who loves watching his channel--->
ngl i love the opening of hearing the music you’re listening too 🙃
Growing up grandpa Jim would make us clean hundreds of these and then have a smelt fry! They were so darn good!
That’s sweet
Smelts are the best great video
Glad you like them!
Damn why didn't u tell me u were in town 😅 I can't wait for fish opener. Good fishing in the twin ports. Gotta go up to fish lake, or try the brule river. Lots of trout .🤙
Teflon pan? 😂 antique cast iron cookware for the win, junior
😂
I love Lake Superior ❤❤❤
I love your videos bro....Keep it up❤❤❤❤!!!!
What is up MURDA ! love smelting, haven't done it in a while, tight lines
I made salt and pepper smelt (like the Chinese buffet shrimp) it was so good. Have to give it a try
Good evening prime time content bout to rock the internet keep going be cool 😎
Smelting is big here in Vermont too especially through the ice on a jig pole if you know where the schools are you can set up lines with 2 or 3 hooks and jig up multiple at once pretty fun
Back on the grind homie getting back to it waiting for walleye opener.
Same! Can’t wait
Smelting is fun and they're so delicious breaded and deep fried!!
🤤
Murrrrr little late to the party!!!!!!! LETS GO!!!!!!!!🎣🍳
Better than never 🤜🤛
Love that this is my hometown
Me and a buddy had a blast and caught like 100 a piece in under a hour ice fishing. Surprisingly good eating. I thought it would taste a million time fishier than it did.
love your channel!
in Alaska, we call these
hooligan. we use a 30 foot long pole w/netting, wade into out going or in coming tide. only 20/30 miles outside Anchorage.
good times!
Very cool!
I used to go smelting back in the 60s when we lived in esko, we would get nets full of them and buckets full, i was only 8 9 or 10 back then and there was a lot more smelt
Greetings from Redondo Beach 🇺🇸 Nice fishing video. 🌷
Thanks for coming
🔥 as always
😄
Growing up we ate deep fried smelt on Christmas Eve. So good.
Bussin!🤤
Really!!!!! 2 times SUPER FISHY to me lemon too.if there decent and Brother Brodi Cleaned em.COOL!!
Great job y'all
Hey never heard of this, thanks for sharing 👍
Thanks for watching! It was a good time
Let’s Goo! 🎉🎉
🙌
Eating bait, eating minnows, when you said that, made ne laugh.🎣
😂
Pulled nets there in 3 foot white caps one time, had to jump at the top of every wave to keep it out of the waders, it was so scary and loud haha
When I was a kid, the owner of the camp we went to used to do a smelt fry over the fire on Thursday night. They were so good. Camp was kn parry sound bay off of Georgian Bay. People here catch em on the niagara river. Im scared off of them because of the reports of the chemicals they have in them.
Just retired, my dad would come home in the 70s with coolers of smelt. Grab the toothbrush for the inside and beer batter for frying
Good idea!
Cleaning a 5 gal pail of them is a nightmare🤣😬 when it comes to that many it turns into everyone cleaning them🤣
Now I'm hungry for a smelt dinner from the Doo Drop in Muskegon MI!! Too bad it's not there any longer LOL
First time I had Smelt was a dive bar in Michigan.
You can't do it that way in Maine, but smelting is huge up here!
You can always put a little cayenne in batters if all else fails. Tbh until this video I can't recall hearing about smelt. They really do look like large minnows😅. Tyfs God bless you
Fun times❤️💯🌈🙏🏻🕊
I'm from Michigan but I live in Kentucky now my favorite every time I come back home is to buy a few bags of fresh Alaskan smelt and fry them up
🤤🤤🤤
“Taste like minnows” 😂😂😂😂😂
Love Smelts
Love smelt!!! We catch em on jigs ice fishing!
Use flower and butter yummy.
Delicious, that's what smelt are..
Yes they are!
Ol Smelting on park point!!
Good times
Very nice your view my friend
Thanks for visiting
You guys seems late or early. They are tons on park point when u get there st the right time. Compared to yesrs like 10 years ago to now its amazing to smelt now to than
We dip in a large river so while we're dipping I keep some alive and use them for bait even the 7 or 8" ones and they crush on a tight line.
Y'all need to get Brody some tongs... 😂
Ya we do😂😂😂
Question can you eat the frozen ones from where you buy bait?
You are right I used to catch smelts for bait for Laketrout
Good bait!
Murda why did you look like you were confused in the into. I still ain’t drowned worms this year but hopefully this weekend I’ll do some pond hopping
W vid as always
RandomBrandon69 needs to make a comeback!
Cajun beer batter is best way I’ve found
You have to try them smoked, eat them like potato chips. So good.
Next time!
Save the smelt heads, fish love them on slip bobbers
I bet!
I read the title and ‘lmfao’d’ and said to myself, why wouldn’t you use the bait to catch the bigger fish. 😂😂. I almost killed myself but everybody does what they do. 😂
I go to school in duluth, you should’ve said hi
Just eating minnows 😂😂😂
😭😭😭
Is that lake Superior? I haven’t seen that many smelt in Lake Michigan In probably 35-40 years!!
They are back and in force
Annual smelt fry Beaver Bay mn coming up soon at the Beaver Bay Green Door a Big Event.
Smelt are bomb!!! So good... I haven't been smelting in years❤ I would use a metal net and scoop em up.
He who Smelt it dealt it..
I bet smelt would be great pickled . I haven’t had fresh smelt in years. We used to use them for bait on tip ups but I heard Minnesota has stopped the use of them on inland lakes unless they have been preserved with a dnr permit.page 27 in the rule book
Probably!!
Taste like minnows!!😂
😂
❤😂👍 minna..
Me and my brother used to go fishing when we were younger and catch glass minnows and stuff in the bait net and try to catch stuff out from under bridges using them if we didn't catch nothing that sucker would bring them home and eat the bait
That’s dope🤟
Smelt for dinner last night 😂
😂
Lolololololololololol!!!!!!! Can't stop laffffffffin fellas lolololololololool!!!
Does Brody have his own TH-cam channel?
Can we organized a kitchen utensils fund raiser for Brody.
That's Batchelor life
Yes, absolutely
Superior to duluth:)
😎
Always good to see ya!!
🤜🤛
Finger food gotta love it
🤤
Is that Murda and the mating call? Lol
lol
I remember my grandpa had a bathtub full of these once like 10,000 fish I'm sure
Haha that’s awesome!
If you don’t know what something taste it immediately tastes like chicken 😂
Right😂😂😂
Try breading them with crushed Cool Ranch Doritos.......
Smelt used to be popular, I hear their populations are coming back
Back around 1970 my Dad used to bring home trash cans full, it would take the entire family (10 kids) hours to clean them. I loved those smelt. be nice to see harvest like that again.
Good to hear!
I guess they are in the salmon family
Fish ..... " it tastes like fish " .HAHA
It doesn’t though😂
Good times! Haven't missed a year in the last 24.. did about 35 gallons in 2 hours 2 guys this year. Nice job! Dont forget to scrape them bloodlines!
Smelt aren't minnows. right? Am I crazy?
