The Smith is low and clear, but there are fish around. During last week’s Rowdy Creek derby, quite a few were caught even though conditions were extremely tough. Boat pressure has been light as most have moved to other rivers. When we do get some rain, the fishing should bust wide-open as the downers are all waiting for some water.
