What kind of blender did you use to puree the smelt? Did you cook them first or just throw them raw in the blender?
You ain’t from around here, are you boy?
You must be from Texas.
Blender??!!! SMelt???!! No way. You bread the smelt (after cutting off their heads and gutting them) and sorta deep fry it (you put enough oil or lard in the cast iron fry pan to cover the smelt about halfway up, cook a little on that side, then flip and cook the other side till the breading is golden, grab a beer and eat/drink!).
I was kidding about the smelt drinking, that's just our way of saying we're going to head to the bridge around 10 at night, get to the river, dip the nets and then drink massive amounts of beer. Or,if you're me and you don't drink beer, ya crack a Diet Coke and become the designated driver. Watching the sun rise through the Mackinaw Bridge is awesome.
