i like the sabiki rigs, i have one rod with a sabiki rig with a live shirmp on everyhook that i just drop down to the bottom and let it sit to the side and check it every 5 minits. and with another rod i have a single hook with a 1/4oz rubber core sinker or 1/2oz with the gold arberdeen. it might be a tad too early for wicked good results on smelt. you might catch a few but in a few weeks theyll be lots more. i just use my freshwater gear. i used a flyrod once that was fun. once you get 1 on the sabiki just let it sit in the water with it struggleing and the other one will be attracked to it.

why waste your time on smelt right now when there are bass?
