went out super early today, fog was thick, but we ended up scoring 3 nice stripers! so glad we braved the weather. using live minnows and it paid off, was worth every minute. can't wait to get back out there!

not the best day at Smith Mountain, barely caught anything. just a 4lb striper and it was so cold! wind chill hit hard. gonna switch up my gear next time for sure, need better lure for these conditions
another cloudy day but the stripers were still there! got 2 nice ones, one was almost 15lbs! used a big swimbait and man, it was a thrill. gotta love when the fish are hungry. already planning my next trip
man it was chilly today out there! we didn't land much, just 1 striper around 6lbs, but the fog made it kinda spooky but cool. went with dude from work, we had fun even if the fish werenβt biting. next time!
finally got out to Smith Mtn Lake after a crazy week. caught a couple decent stripers around 8lbs on a topwater lure! the overcast sky def helped. went out around 6 am and it was so peaceful
