I see the lake is still down quite a bit. That condition creates some really good fishing this time of the year. Also Smith Lake is rated as one of the cleanest lakes in the U.S. and therefore produces some really good eating fish.

My best Stripper fish catch in Smith was 23 lbs in Clear Creek.

My most memorable striper was 18.5 lbs and I caught it on a crappie jig using 6 lb line. I caught it in Brushy Creek and when I finally got it in there six boats that were stopped to watch the action.

I hope to make a trip over there this spring to crappie fish with my grandkids. They live at Arley, Al.

Congratulations on your catch and thanks for sharing the photographs. :thumb:

Nice pics. A few of those seem to be hybrids. I saw where you said yall were trolling. Trolling catches fish. I am a firm believer in it.

Good job on the fish. Eat well.
