Fishing
22,000 acres of water with countless tributaries and coves make Smith Mountain Lake
a picture perfect and angler perfect destination. Locals don?t blink an
eye at a 20-pound striper in this paradise for fishing.
Stripers helped make the lake famous for its fishing but our waters also host
excellent populations of largemouth and smallmouth bass, crappies and
bluegills. Other gamefish of note dwell in the lake as well, and all
have their followers. Channel catfish are found in the deeper points of
the lake and there is a dedicated group of walleye hunters. Muskies,
white bass, rock bass and redbreast sunfish round out the gamefish
contingent.
Whether you?re new to fishing or just new to the lake, a popular way to learn
the ins and outs of our huge lake is hiring a pro. Our professional
fishing guides are listed and linked below. To check out the great
fishing tournaments held at the lake, click on our? Events page.
