The topwater bite continues to sizzle on Smith. Mornings are best from 5AM to 7 or 8, depending on the day. There is some schooling, but not giant schools that stay on top for long periods of time. Most places I have been catching them have been in open water near long points, and there will be one or two swirls every so often. You dont have to have see any surface activity to catch them, however. A super spook is the only thing I am throwing on most days, and I have been catching stripers as well as spots. Sunday, Rex and I had 3 stripers over 15lbs and numerous spots before the jetskis and skiers woke up. Monday, JB and I fished the Memorial Day tournament out of the park from 5-10AM. We caught 15 spots over the slot and 5 stripers, plus numerous slots and smaller spotted bass. We ended the day with a 6.10lb largemouth to take big fish and win the tournament with 15.82lbs
