I usually fish the north end of the lake, but this week started my trips to the south end following the stripe. This past week or so, the stripe fishing from Misty Harbor to Mallard Point got worse everyday. It was to the point that gar were thick around the lights and very few stripe were present. About this time of year, the stripe move south around the dam. So I'll be picking up and moving down there for the next month or so. For the last couple of days, I've been fishing hard staying on top of a couple schools of fish. If you're interested in fishing Smith Lake give me a call. Two week special: 5 1/2 hour trip from 6:30pm-12:00am. 1-3 people $200-$220 Mike Walker (205)503-2020 www.fishing24-7guideservice.com [email protected]
