Smelting is dead in quincy, I got some early, but for some reason they were really small and not worth taking.
But now even those are gone.

FYI, a good size typical smelt for eating is 6" long, and I've gotten them close to 9"(rarely). Under 4" ain't worth keeping.

If we get ice again on the rivers, the fishing should be good.
