Anyone ever go smelting?

Just wondering if anyone goes smelt fishing anymore or if they are around these parts? I went maybe 15 years ago when I was a kid near my home town (Georgian bay). We would go out real late with big square nets and lights and catch hundreds. My step dad always said it was legal to net them. Does that still take place? I can remember cutting their head off with scissors and cleaning theirs guts out with my thumb and frying them up. Small town family fun. Delicious though.
