Product Description

•••••
Whole smelt -- Individually Quick Frozen (IQF).  That means they are frozen individually and not stuck together. A few will of course get stuck together but it's not a huge block of fish. They are in one bag inside a box, not individually packaged.

Whole (or round) means they are caught and frozen immediately. They are not cleaned, gutted, scaled, etc. These smelt are expected to be about 2 - 3 inches but they could vary more than that.

PLEASE NOTE: these are wild animals and the grading for these are sometimes off and sizes can vary. NO REFUNDS due to size--I do not guarantee you will have all fish 2 - 3". If you need it to be exact, don't buy these.

Smelt have been in very short supply the last few years and they have been running small when we do get them. No large or jumbo smelt are expected next year either. We have had to take what we can get so they are not packed in smaller bags or vac packed like we have provided in the past. I know people will order this and complain that a few years ago they were in smaller bags. These are not, they are in an 11 pound bag inside our standard 11 pound box.

Ordering was fast and Easy. Just need to work on a better carrier. My order was delayed by UPS. I ordered 33 lbs of smelt for my coworkers for a fish fry. The timing was originally perfect for a Friday delivery. UPS delayed the order and delivered it on Monday. All of the smelt was bad.

If you see that the Whole Smelt are available, buy some before they sell out! Some reviews said they were too small, but my family and I thought they were Perfect!

Our order was forgotten and never placed even though everything on my end said it went through. Smelt was so tiny there was literally nothing to eat. I don’t know if I got a bad batch but they had a bitter aftertaste .. we ended up throwing it all away since there is a ‘no return’ policy. Soooo expensive and absolutely disappointing.

Awesome if you like your smelts on the small side. Cleaning is easy and quick, and they cook quick. Really worth it if you like the little fellars. Delicious!

Tasty and just the right size smelt. First I bite the heads off, then I suck the guts out thru their throat. Then I gorge on the generous meat portions and tail. SCRUMPTIOUS!

I ordered this as a gift for my brother who lives in another state. He took a picture of the box he received and it read "bait". He thought I had sent him bait as a gift and he doesn't go fishing. After I explained to him that it wasn't bait. Later he texted me and said the fish didn't taste fresh and he was disappointed. This had upset me very much.

Awesome! If you want great lake smelt, and know what that is, these are that--perfect. Freshwater smelt. Not saltwater smelt. Not anything else. I think any negative reviews are from people who didn't understand what they were ordering. If you know what you're ordering, these are a homerun! I am so grateful that Walleye makes this available. Thank you!!

I am a first time buyer and i purchased 24 # of lake smelt and was gonna add blue gills to the order and i am kinda glad i didn't. I recieved smelt on thursday like you said no problem there. But had to throw out about 50 % of them from being freezer burnt. Not real satisfied whit the results.
