With warmer weather approaching us here in Smith Mountain Lake, more anglers are ready to hit the water as more docks and boat ramps are finally shedding their icy coats. The weather next week should start hitting the 50's - at least during the day. As the water slowly begins to warm, the stripers will finally begin to be more active and start showing the aggression anglers enjoyed in December.
Spring will bring many opportunities for the anglers of Smith Mountain Lake!
