well then, maybe you'll need a freezer to go with those smelt? I think a person can dip those rascals from a boat, that could be fun, dip some smelt, catch and release some sturgeon, twood make for a good day. I'd wager than the little slime balls would not be as dense in the Columbia, might be slimmer pickins.
The last I heard they where predicting a small return and dip season was only going to be open on Saturdays. I'll give a yell when the seagulls invade the Cowlitz
