Coronet Bay Smelting

If you have been getting a little cabin fever recently you might want to put a trip to Coronet Bay together for a little smelt jigging. We have finally been getting some reports of fairly good fishing.

This season has been extremely slow for the most part at both Coronet Bay as well as Oak Harbor. With very poor reports most folks just gave up the idea that smelting was just not going to happen this season. However, we have had a couple of folks in today that were up there over the weekend that managed to get some fair numbers of smelt.

This is a great family activity that requires a minimum of gear and provides an outstanding winter outing. Not only is it a great way to spend some time in the ourdoors but eating the results of your efforts is a reward in itsself. Our silver smelt are on of my favorite fish to eat here in the Northwest.

Ted's has all the gear you need for this outing. Feel free to stop by if you have any questions on this fishery, we'll be glad to help you out.
