Rick with a nice SML striper I have fished for stripers at Smith Mountain Lake for two and a half years since buying a condo at Bridgewater Pointe. I have a home in Southwest Roanoke county as my primary residence but am at the lake as often as possible and spend time in FL during the cold water months. I regret not realizing long ago that Smith Mountain Lake is a great fishery. I have enjoyed fishing all my life and caught stripers in the Chesapeake bay in the early 80's. I would say that Joanne, my wife of 34 years is one of my closest fishing buddies although you would not know it when we are out there on the water. She caught a 20+ lb striper in the bay years ago while 6 months pregnant. We both are anxious to learn more about striper fishing. We have 7 grandchildren, 6 girls and a boy. Our boys live in Roanoke and Salem our girls live in West Virginia.
