    Default anyone catching anything off the docks at Smithville or from the shore?


    Hey Gang.

    I'm back in town this weekend and curious if anyone is catching anything off the docks (Camp Branch or LP) or could recommend other places from shore that have been productive.

    Thanks.

    I tried Crow's Creek today and didn't have a bite in four hours! I'm like cantcatchcrappie .. saw a few other fishermen, but never saw anybody catch anything. Please tell me somebody caught a darn fish at Smitty today!

    My wife and I headed out around noon to the Camp Branch dock. We stayed about 2 hours. Nary a nibble. I guy on the dock caught one 9"er and I saw a fellow cruising the dock on his boat snag one. That's it though. Not a productive day.

    Next time I might try sailboat again. It sure was snag city last time I tried it though.

    The best thing my wife and I caught was the rib special at Lowman's for lunch! Holy crap that's a lot of ribs for $12!!!!

    took the kayak to sailboat cove this morning. There was two other boats and three people on the banks. I drew a blank and a guy on one of the boats caught a few shorts but that was it
