I will be heading to Lake Smith here. Planning on spending most the day trying to break the skunk streak. Good luck and tight lines.

I ended up going to Little Creek (across from Lake Smith) because they never opened the gates at Lake Smith for some reason. Didn't get a bite. Spent the day trying texas rigged tube, worm and creature bait. Tried a jerk bait for a little while but didn't feel right. Same thing with a spinnerbait. Used a drop shot for a while also. Then spent the last hour or so with a black and blue jig. Not one bite on anything.

Bottom line Brian is this is a tough time of year to be catching fish, especially if you don't have a couple of years experience seeing where the fish go and how they relate during these changing conditions. I've never lived and fished anywhere where I had to write down everything I learn year to year like I di here in VA.
