Survival
The night smelt spawns nocturnally, in the surf zone, over coarse sand beaches, from Point Arguello in central California to southeast Alaska. Spawning generally occurs from February through August.
Night smelt are not to be confused with the California grunion (Leuresthes tenuis), an unrelated silverside that also spawns in the surf at night.
