[QUOTE="Rowdie, post: 448195, member: 272"] Back then even with low water levels there were still a ton of smelt. One year I remember we were seining below the concrete at the East ramp at Indian Creek in Mobridge. Another year it was the early 90's and I remember pulling into town about 5 am and I went right to Indian Creek ramp. The low water ramp at Indian Creek had some guys so I pulled in to the fire. It was burned way down and they were both passed out. One guy was hugging an empty half G of Lord Calvert curled up in the fetal position by the fire in his waders. So I grabbed one of their lights and started checking. Their buckets had maybe a dozen. I shined the water and they were running hard! I tried waking them up but they were OUT. [/QUOTE]
