Hey, I gotta tell you this. I dont really know where your town is in AL, but there is something that has to be done. And this is what it is.

I lived in Auburn for a few years, and was lucky enough to have a job travelling the state and fishing most of the reservoirs in AL. I worked at Smith Lake a ton. Just below Smith Dam is a bridge, its the first bridge that crosses that river (cant remember the bridge name or the river name). If you stand on this bridge and look down into the river you will see many very large stripers, many approaching 50 pounds. Also, this river is the only river in AL that has trout. When I worked there, my partner and I were always trying to figure out how to get down the bank (its very steep with extreme kudzoo coverage) so that we could catch those stripers. We never did try, unfortunately. I still talk to my partner, he lives in Magnolia Springs, and to this day we still talk about those stripers.

If you monitor this site, youve read all about swimbaits. Im telling ya, if you get an ROF 5 Huddleston in trout, and figure out how to get down that bank, you will pound those huge fish. Somebody has to try it, it may as well be you. Ive almost convinced my buddy to drive the 6 hours or so with huddleston in hand to finally go after those fish.

Anyway, if you try it, let us know what happens. It would be like taking candy from a baby!
