About Us

The Smith Mountain Striper Club is a non-profit organization committed to the preservation and enjoyment of fresh water Striped Bass.  The major elements fundamental to the Club's purposes are Education, Conservation, Community and Social. 

Club members actively promote and support the awesome trophy Striped Bass fishery at Smith Mountain Lake. We help new anglers learn about fishing tactics for SML stripers, and enable seasoned anglers to share fishing pics, tips and insights with others.​

• We educate our members and the general public about all aspects of the Striped Bass fishery.
• We work closely with VA DWR on conservation programs that sustain and improve the striper fishery at SML.
• We conduct activities, programs, and social events to promote unity and fellowship of the Club.
• We give back to and support the lake area by participating in many worthwhile community events.

Meetings
General membership meetings are held at 7:00 pm, the 1st Friday of each month at the Moneta Community Center on Rucker Rd, unless otherwise noted. For more info, send an email to smsc@smithmountainstriperclub.com
