Smelts are a family, Osmeridae, of small fish found in the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans.


I know there are other minnows in the duct, (look like Silverside type). But I dont know what they are.????
I do know, they are not Smelt...

Just curious, a park ranger at Silverwood called those Silverside's smelt. Didn't think it was correct, thought they were minnows too.

Thanks!

Sorry to differ with you RamboBoy but I have caught LMB out of the aquaduct. The last was about 3 years ago right next to the 77th St. bridge in Littlerock.

Really ! I have not see large mouth bass in the Duct.

[RamboBoy]

There are some largemouth bass in there but not in any significant numbers. If it's in the delta it gets in the duct too. There should be some sturgeon too but not in any significant quantity either. The stripers, cats and carp are the abundant fish though.

Oh really, I didn't know that it has lmb and sturgeon in the Duct. Interesting.

Like I said "They are few and far between", but they are there.
Catching one is like winning the aquaduct lottery.

No kidding. Many think striper skunks suck, you would be depressed trying to catch a lmb or sturgeon.

Out of curiosity, has anyone ever caught a trout in the duct?

LMB, Striper, Catfish, Carp, and Shad are the only fish I've caught, not saying there aren't more.

This is a close picture to the shad I've caught

I do KNOW they are smelt!!


They are Delta Smelt.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Delta_smelt

There are Largemouth, Green sunfish, Bluegills, Stripers, Carp, Catfish, Mitten Crabs and Crappie in the Duct. As far as sturgeon, I have heard rumors but have no confirmation as I have with the other species.

Yes there are smelt in the duct. The stripers I have caught recently are full of them.
