Interesting discussion. I'm not all that familiar with the Riffe Lk. fishery. I have seen folks catch small Silvers at the fishing bridge and I would not consider them smolts based on the fact that they are pretty good sized.

Roughly 14-20" and one to two pounds. To me that is a very big "smolt".

If I need to be enlightened pls do so.

Thanx
