Hey Bloocrab,
Gotta' say, that looks FANTASTIC and making me very hungry. But for XMAS Eve, if the goal is 7 fishes, I say add smelts to your menu with the beautiful bake. |

Smelts and Christmas - marriage made in heaven
As far back as I can remember, smelts have always been a major part of our XMAS holiday meal. Today, first thing children and their spouses ask for when they come for dinner on Christmas Day are the smelts.
I usually do a light flour mix (with light touch of black pepper) and deep fry in hot oil until golden brown - and salt as soon as they come out is absolute must!
Anyone else have a recipe to share?  |

Close, but I use corn flour on mine. Sometimes I'll do Bread crumbs to get them extra crunchy, serverd with Fries, Cole Slaw, and a cold beer |

Question - how do you eat the smelt? Are the bones removable? Or do you have to pick the meat off them?
On another note - years ago when we fished for whiting in Jamestown we would run into a crew of four guys who would run two man seines along the shallow shoreline at night. They were catching silversides and would dump the seine into barrels they had in the back of a pickup truck. We asked them what they did with them - answer was they brought them to Boston where they were deep fried and sold as "fried whitebait" at the Quincy seafood markets. They mentioned getting real good money. Anyone do this or eat whitebait?
