The chart shows you can eat smelt 7 servings per week. Anyone knows how they taste? I probably wont try it any time soon as long as i can eat bass once a week.
One thing i noticed, there are hatcheries for white sea bass and halibut where they release young fish but i have not heard any bass hatchery. Is it because bass is not a commercial fish?

Hey chuck you can check pierfishing.com for a bit of info on eating some of the local species. There's a "food value" section for each one. Jacksmelt says tasty but lots of small bones.

I've eaten them before, they really are quite tasty.
