They were typically tied on 8x long hooks in size 2 or 4 for trolling but you could also tie them in casting sizes on a 6 or 8 hooks 8x long. You could also tie them tandem with beads on a wire. There is also a classic streamer book but out by David Klausmeyer that is a nice book for tying them. I've got a book devoted just to Smelt Flies that you could probably find pretty inexpensive. Many of the patterns are from New England. A number of Smelt patterns.. just google smelt streamer patterns. The Black Ghost Grey Ghost The Demon The General MacArthur Golden Witch Greyhound Blue Devil Green Beauty Governor Supervisor Col. Bates There is even a streamer list out there that you may stumble across in your searches. Google Mike Martinek's flies Or Chris Del Plato's flies (he had an article out on streamer flies in the Premiere issue of Hatches Magazine) That should give you a good start.
