Since there may be a big batch of smelts in our future with this years Smeltapolooza expedition drawing near, I dug out my fried smelt recipe so I can refresh my memory. And why not share because, isn’t that what this is all about?!  So, here it is. You can write it down or copy and paste it and put it somewhere safe like me so you dont have to remember all the steps….

                                      Ingredients:

                                 A bunch of smelts.

                                       Some flour.

                                           Butter.

Clean and toss smelts in flour. Melt butter in hot frying pan. Throw smelts in and fry. Serve with a frosty beverage of your choice- Possibly a Monsters Of Fishing Brewing Company, Smeltapolooza 2010 Amber Ale—Oops,  more to come on that from Dean….
