   The rainbow smelt is one of the primary food sources for coldwater salmon and trout.  While  these baitfish represent  one specie they can look quite different from lake to lake.  The  transparent smelt shown here was netted and photographed at night. The close up, photographed under light, appears  transparent but the pictures below show they are silvery and reflective. At Cee Dee Streamer Flys we design and tie most of  our streamers to imitate the rainbow smelt.
