A cool calm captain is hard to come by. The many hours under your belt show....your cool demeanor helps everyone enjoy the trip.....I have learned a lot from your vids.....your the best out there!
Wow. Thanks Jim! That’s very kind of you. I do appreciate it. 😁👍👍👍🙏🙏
Great video Mike. I used to fish Smith Mountain a lot . Then I move closer to the bay and got hooked on the salt water. But with the new rules might have to go back to the lake.
Good action on a rainy day 👍
Realistic Fishing 😁😁👍👍
Man, I’m looking forward to trying this technique out this fall!!!!
It’s a fun way to fish.
Awesome guys, I fish Smith Mountain a lot as well. On my third season and still learning. We fish the tournys and Mr. farly is always in that top spot. Great people around the lake to learn form. Thanks for the great video.
Thanks brother!!!👍👍👍😁😁😁
Great to see some heavyweights of striper fishing leaving their egos on shore. Thanks for sharing!!
😁😁😁👍👍❤️❤️
Best days to striper fish!! Caught my biggest fish on the nastiest days!
Yes sir! 👍👍
You're an incredible resource for information. I live on Bull Shoals Lake AR. and looking forward to putting some of what you teach into action. Thank you.
Thanks brother!! I really appreciate that!! 👍😁👍😁
So nice to see healthy stripe bass released awesome technique
mbtornado thanks brother!!
Yeah I needed to see this. Gave me more confidence to keep pushing shallower even in bad weather conditions, can't wait to get back out there. Thanks Mike great video!
Thanks brother. I really appreciate that.
Great fishing with you guys! What a blessing!! Can't wait to check out New Jersey. Be Safe Brother!!!
You know it brother!👍
My friend lives in sandy level, I think we are going to start fishing leesville. I've never fished for stripers before.
Good to see an old NSBA guys still going at it.
😁😁😁👍👍👍👍
Hey Mike been awhile since I commented..
Your videos are the $#!+... best intell by far bar none.... your not just making sales pitch for sponsors.. just telling it like it is...... Keep up the good work Bro...
If you ever get down in Arkansas look us up.... Breckenridges
Those are some big baits! Not sure I could keep those alive.
Appreciate you sharing your knowledge this will be my first year trying this on lake Monroe in indiana
Waiting on a trip Dave!! Haha nice video guys💪🏼
Let's go brother u know u can anytime big dog we go back to the beginning of time big dog come on with it 😊My brother from another mother!!!!!!
David Farley hopefully soon I can get out, I’ll pack us some good food, Skoal, and maybe a few Pepsi’s! Haha
Thanks brother 😁👍
We Catch em out here in Sacramento like that. No planer boards though. I like the idea
Victor Torres 👍👍👍
Great weather for this time of year. Going to get cold this weekend. Nice job Mike.
Thanks brother 😁
I really enjoyed this. Even tho it was raining and cold it looks so fun. I've never caught a stripper before but I've always wanted to. Nice fish🎣 nice job
I appreciate that!! It was definitely cold and wet, but plenty of fun.
JAY OAKS MUSIC go for it brother.
JAY OAKS MUSIC I honestly don’t know if they can be shipped that far economically. We are eating less and less every year in the US as we are learning more about Mercury and other contaminants. Smaller ones are your best bet. They do taste good, you are correct.
Where u guys located??? Is that a charter your on???
Tryn2GoProBro Zach Webb No charter, just fishing. I don’t run charters anymore because I’m fishing so many different places now. I fish the entire East coast for Stripers in fresh and salt making fishing and how to videos.
Nice video Mike I recognize those guys especially the Dave dude joker follows me everywhere I go!!😂😂.What's even better is meeting new people like Steve Barrow and Mark Fields friends forever.Cant beat the Striper community best guys around 5 Star!!!
Absolutely. That’s honestly the best part of Striper fishing for me.
Nice video fellas. I’ll have the yella top boat in that area Sunday. Your welcome to join if you can Farley.
I may bro if I can get back to the dock by 10 am got to pick up my son.Hopefully one day I can get ya on the boat with Mike smedley he would enjoy ya Mike Earley.I have to work on him on a epic adventure 😉
This is my goal this year on my west coast river! Thanks for the training.
Go for it brother!!👍👍
Check out some of my older freshwater videos. They break down the methods further.
I might be wrong but fish striking at the boards makes me think they're keying on big baits. They see the boards on top and believe they're bait running away. I've seen them slap huge baits on top, kill them and swallow them when they float down. Just my penny. Thanks for sharing!
Sure. I agree. Sometimes the bait swims to the board for some kind of cover and it all gets blown up together. Especially when there are multiple Stripers.
keen eye , i was tipped off to the same exact hypothesis as you . BIG BAITS STRIPER LIKEY but the visual key that made me feel my theory could be valid was the 19 inch 3lbs gizard shad . used as bait . foolishly i thought the stripers might enjoy these tender morsels for nourishment but now you got me back to sweet confusion ...i think the stripers love those boards ALOT, and get jealous of the gizz shad proximity to the stripers bff.
As always a great video. Must have been right before we had all the rain. That area now is like chocolate milk. Hopefully soon it will clear up so we can get back up there.
Water literally muddied up as we fished. Was chocolate milk by the afternoon.
Hey Mike glad you made it to smith mtn. Me and a buddy were jigging a little further down that day, we did well. Because of your videos I got a simrad and absolutely love it. The active transducer is amazing. Glad you guys got on some good fish!
D. Orange that’s great brother!! I’m glad you like it!! We got lucky catching fish before the river turned to mud. Thanks for the comment. I really appreciate it. 👍👍
Come on down to Lake Hartwell, SC and show me how to catch them! The lake holds some big stripers!
😁😁😁😁👍👍👍
Thanks Mike!
You got it brother 😁😁😁😁👍👍.
Great video. Shows every day isn’t pretty and you guys fish in bad weather too. If you ever come to Smith Mountain Lake and wanna take a fan hit me up.
Thanks brother! Fishing with good people is the best part. Shoot me an email. Mikesmedley9@gmail.com
Jodym2870@gmail.com
I live only 20 min from SML. Fish it a lot but I’m new to striper fishing. Pulled a few rigs behind my CC but no luck yet. I’ll keep trying. I mostly fish the OBX for drum and trout. Did some trolling for Spanish last summer and did really good but I think anyone can catch them.
Joe Monaghan cool. Keep at it, SML is a Great Lake. Shoot me an email in around a month. Mikesmedley9@gmail.com. I may be back up there, not positive, but might be.
This really proves your point, they are shallow. I believe you one hundred percent now.
You know it brother!! 😁😁😁
Hey Mike, I think that's the cove where I go fishing with a friend of mine. Looks awhful familiar...
Could be!! 👍
@@MikeSmedleyOLDSCHOOLSTRIPERS Nah, we looked at it. Where was that. We fish alot up Bull Run . Good fishing out past BU5 bout.
What determines how much line you put out from the planer boards??
How the fish are acting. I tend to let less line out on the shallow boards and more on the deeper, but that can change sometimes.
Great video! Would you an instruction on how to fish Clark’s Hill Lake (Lake Strom Thurmond) on the Savannah River between Georgia and South Carolina?
What my dad and I do is leave In the evening in the summer time and stop at a place called the herring hut. The we try to find some deep water in almost like an open pocket. The week look at the depth finder and it's a lot of trolling and waiting. If you see something like doppler radar there's a whole bunch of them there. Although you gotta time it right cause sometimes we go to certain spots and its been kinda dead out but then I see people with a tailgate full of them. That's all I really know about it. But when you find a good spot just put a herring on a circle hook and drop it to the bottom, troll around, and hope something bites. Tying up to the dam close to nighttime is a good spot for it
See thos fish hanging in thos rocks?me: all I see is yellow 😂
walmart 1800 😂, they are actually hard to see in the video.
Great video guys in the rain I'm new at planer boards thinking on trying them out this year. But are they hard to use? They don't look like it when you guys have them out. But when I try something it's a disaster. LOL
Or are the kites easier than the planer boards?
Ha. They are really easy brother, just try one on each side until you are comfortable. You’ll get the hang of it pretty quick. 👍👍
Thanks brother I'll give it a shot
vipergeddy 👍👍😁
Man! Been trying to get to SML, been tied down with work, can't get away. I have pulled planer boards on SML for several years. Now live at the NC coast and typically saltwater fishing. But even with trolling here catching different species of fish, shark fishing here and going to Fl keys tarpon and shark fishing, one of the most exciting types of fishing is slow trolling planer boards for striper.
Heck yeah brother! It’s a pretty lake. It’s pretty where you are now too though 😜
@@MikeSmedleyOLDSCHOOLSTRIPERS - I enjoy living at the NC coast. Fish inshore trout and reds. Then spanish, kings, mahi, sharks and more on a 24' bay boat. But still love that calm mountain lake and watching a striper hit live bait on a planer board!
Chris M 😁😁👍👍
I gotta try those boards!!
I really like them, Zakk Royce editons.
@@MikeSmedleyOLDSCHOOLSTRIPERS thanks for the plug on the boards, they aren't listed in the product list so was scanning the comments and found the answer. They look like Clear Boards, which do not have a great rating online. You just helped Zakk get a new customer! Ordered 2 boards for each side and extra clips. Headed to SML in October to try our first planer board trip during a week of camping and hunting stripers. I've caught hundreds in the Roanoke River spring run on a guide boat, but never hauled one over my own gunwhale, yet. Filling up on all your striper vids. Great content.
Thanks brother!!!! I appreciate that!! 👍👍👍
@@MikeSmedleyOLDSCHOOLSTRIPERS Hey Mike, when you tie on the treble stinger, are you using any particular knot? I know you almost always use a Palomar you said, and I agree. Saw a knot strength test video and the Palomar is the second strongest ever, and the absolute easiest to tie on in a hurry. So what are you using for the drop stinger on the gizzard shad?
Crockett Yep. A palomar with fluorocarbon.
The latest I've fish is to the end of the year when the temps started hitting 25s then call it a season didn't think they still out.. I'm in Massachusetts
You can get them all year in fresh. We catch em in salt all year in Maryland and friends get them in NJ all year unless it’s a brutal winter.
@@MikeSmedleyOLDSCHOOLSTRIPERS its gnna be a early spring I think I'm gnna start soon.last year was my PB year probably caught at least 10-15 a week above regulation size average was 38in . I always was catching schoolies nonstop and tried something different and started catching them cows in same spot
Ivan Santiago Nice. Changing things up can really set it off!
I was catching them in late December were freshwater starts to turn salt more on the fresh side Its a tough spot to fish but the rewards are worth it. I out fished all my friends that have boats and I'm on land.i still go out with them cause its always fun on a boat and we can catch some varieties but when I want my big boys I go to my spot magic time for me is always 1-3am.. all my buddies like going like 8-1am and they only do ok.But my big ones always 1-3 am
Ivan Santiago HELL YEAH BROTHER!! I love it!
P.s the planer boards and floats can be a huge game changer for me where I'm at. ( Wherever that is??? LOL!)
Great vids as always mike, just a side note I just received my 2 new Striper Stealth MH rods for striper fishing and pulling boards, Round Valley ,Spruce Run and Raritan Bay up here in Jersey ,They are awesome !! well worth the money ! Anyone looking for very high quality striper rods check them out !
Glad you like em brother!!! I’ve spent THOUSANDS of hours on Round Valley and Spruce run when I was young! Used to guide on RV in the 80’s. Love it!
Another great video Mike! Truly enjoyed it! Love watching y’all on southern fresh water. I enjoy pulling boards on Lanier. What is your general rule about how far behind the board to pull the bait? Thanks again!
Glad you like it brother!! I GENERALLY put 8-12 feet out on the board furthest from the boat with no weight. 20-30 feet out on board closet to the boat and somewhere in between on the middle board. I sometimes add a split shot to the middle or closest board but not always. This is a general rule, I may put only 4 feet behind if they are swinging at the boards or go as far as 40 ft behind.
How do you deal with strong current and keeping the bait suspended and not floating on top
Always go WITH current. Pulling against current is an unnatural presentation. Going with current your bait can swim naturally. If it wants to swim to surface that’s fine. The bait is only in 2-5 ft of water anyway.
@@MikeSmedleyOLDSCHOOLSTRIPERS thanks. Love your content btw. Especially all the "dummies" video. Extremely helpful and I do set my drag based on the rod power/action instead of line strength like you said in another video.
@@kongxiong6005 awesome!! Thanks Kong!!!
Great video. Quick question. Where did you find those four-rod holders you are using on your boat in this video? Looking for as a gift to my hubby. Thanks.
Thanks, Joey Scruggs makes the rails. They are called TOS pop out rails. I use Smith adjustable rod holders on them. Joey-+1 (434) 907-1656
Mike Smedley, thank you so much for your quick reply.
Lois M 😁😁😁👍👍
Those are good eating fish! come fish Cumberland Reservoir We pull em 40 pounds all day long!!!
Steven Widdifield I’ve been there!! Incredible place!
What type of treble hook was you using?
what rods and reels you using i like them
Oh damn I didn’t recognize you were on Smith!! I fish there a lot. I live near Claytor lake so when fishing here sucks I go to smith!!
Oh yeah. I fished Claytor lake back in the NSBA days, but it was half frozen.
Mike Smedley I fish hard in the spring and fall because I catch and release only. I’ve caught a bunch of nice fish out of claytor but it’s declining because of people over fishing and in the summer after they catch their limit they keep fishing and kill every fish they throw back. I love seeing you guys release the fish! Love your channel keep making videos and I’ll keep watching!!
Derick Graves Thanks brother!! I appreciate your comments!! 👍👍❤️😁
I've been watching all your videos to learn Striper fishing. Getting ready to fish High Rock lake tomorrow. How can I connect with this guy who said he fishes at High Rock? Does he have a channel?
Which reels are those?
Accurate Valiants amzn.to/2XTvZZK.
Is there a different taste of your stripers than saltwater version? Retired coastie living near pinehurst and would love to catch and eat fresh striper. Thanks
Not really. I hear people say there is a difference, but I can’t tell, as long as you stay with smaller fish. They taste the best.
Which stealth Stryper rod is this medium or medium heavy
MH.
@@MikeSmedleyOLDSCHOOLSTRIPERS Thank you very much Mike for getting back to me it is so hard to buy a fishing ride that you haven’t held in your hands I’m ordering two and thought about ordering three and get a medium but it sounds like the medium heavy is the way to go I am calling To order and possibly talk to somebody again thank you
@@randyjaynes6656 No worries brother!! If you can wait a few days i can get you a discount code.
Nice catch! How would you compare the simrad w/ that transducer you mentioned vs. humminbirds mega imaging?
Like the clicker!
👍👍👍
Oooouuuuie! That would’ve been some good eating!
Watched a few of these and got so inspired, I'm about to try to learn to catch striper on Lake Tawakoni in northeast Texas. Texoma is also relatively close. Question - i saw the CE Smith holders and the 30 degree insert in the product list, but what is the t-bar the CE Smiths are on? May have missed it in the list. Thanks for the great content. Going to try a first trip next week.
found it in the comments.
Hey brother. I had a welder make the rails, he was making them for anyone that wanted them as well. Unfortunately he stopped making them in a timely manner so I can’t recommend that welder anymore. Email me if you need specs. Mikesmedley9@gmail.com. Thanks.
Mike, Great video as always. What transducers are you running? I have the same rig that your running and want to make sure I’m running the right stuff.
I have several for testing, but I’m am running two thru-hulls and an Active Imaging.

I’m one of those guys that never use electronics to fish...
I catch stripers on the Hudson River....biggest 47 inches
Great fishing up there. 👍👍
Mike Smedley
Not a world record...
That’s a great fish !!!
We strictly use fresh caught herring chunk ....
Wow that is the nice looking reel. Man you guys catch striped bass on fresh water?
Where are they fishing
Smith Mountain Lake
You come demonstrate this at the mouth of the Thames or Ct river or is it to cold?
It’s too early right now, but it will absolutely work well in late Spring and especially fall. I would use Macks and Bunker in Spring and eels in fall.
Whats your go to rod and reel
For any kind of real bait I use Striper Stealth MH Any ACCURATE lever drag. These are the exact model reels. amzn.to/2VxV35h. But we also love these. amzn.to/2XTvZZK. Thanks brother!!
How can a guy get a ( old school ) sticker or decal,I really like the whole thing ( the work your doing) .
Where did you get those quadruple rod holder extensions? I need to get some of those
Joey Scruggs makes the rails. They are called TOS pop out rails. I use Smith adjustable rod holders on them. Joey-+1 (434) 907-1656
where can you get the rod holders you use
What area was you fishing ?? When you approach an area like that, back of the creek, you motor in or move in with the trolling motor and setup ??
Where did you get your gizzards ? I’ve never fished up there as of yet.
Start at the mouth and work back with trolling motor. You can net Shad in backs of the creeks. Way shallow.
Hi Mike, Gio here from Western Long Island sound. Looking forward to what might be your very first planer board cam (but not sure that will top the beard cam). Would be awesome to get a strike on video.
YES!! I will definitely be trying that! Beard cam is definitely tough to beat, but we can try! 🤣🤣🤣😂😂👍
What speed do you pull the boards at?
It varies a lot. On points I slow to a crawl. .1-.3 mph. Between points or when I’m not marking fish or bait I’ll speed up to 1 .5 mph sometimes. I rarely set it and leave it. 👍👍
Where did you get those rod holders? Those are awesome
Matt Fox Joey Scruggs makes the rails. They are called TOS pop out rails. I use Smith adjustable rod holders on them. Joey-+1 (434) 907-1656. The Smith link is in the description. 👍👍
Is your tactic and location for catching shad the same in winter as it is during warmer season with cast net?
Slightly different but backs of creeks are good all year in mid to late day. Early in the am in winter they will deeper in the creek channel looking for warmer water. As the sun warms up the shallows they will move there.
@@MikeSmedleyOLDSCHOOLSTRIPERS Thank you, very helpful! Love the videos keep them coming! Moving back to nw arkansas soon to striper guide hope to be skilled like you eventually.
Where is this? City state? Ty
Virginia. Smith Mountain
Why not set the hook with the j hooks?
Because the drag was already screaming. He hooked himself already. Once he’s hooked you run the risk of dropping the fish by yanking again.
@@MikeSmedleyOLDSCHOOLSTRIPERS makes sense I’m trying to figure out this trolling deal
@@chrislayton5404 in most cases go with a good circle hook and don’t do anything 👍👍.
@@MikeSmedleyOLDSCHOOLSTRIPERS thanks for the advice and love your videos!
If they're hitting the boards will top water baits work?
Absolutely! In fact I would normally be on the bow chucking some kind of plug to the banks. Even if they don’t hit the plug, they will often follow it and pick up a bait on a board.
You better believe it will. I live on this lake. Spooks. Thundersticks. Red fins. Lunker punkers. Anything like that. We have to leave certain places at night time sometimes because were tournaments fishing, and we don't won't to mess with them. This lake is full of em. Numbers. And bigs. Bite is on fire right now, and my damn boat is in shop!!!! Soon though sooon
It look like lanier! Brown bridge road?
Smith Mountain
Mike any chance of restocking the medium heavy striper rods on the catch the fever site?
They are really struggling to keep up with the demand lately because of the Coronavirus over seas. I’m waiting on some rods myself. Hopefully it will clear up soon.
Understandable thanks for letting me know, I have one and I love it need another for sure great rod!
Frankie Sheehan glad you like them brother!! Hopefully they will have things fixed. I have been recommending the MH so much that they were struggling to keep them in stock as it was. 😂
What r those boards for ?
They pull the baits far away from the boat.
When they said “returns” what does that mean?
David Parker a RETURN is anything on the screen that isn’t white. Anything that the transducer detects is a return. 👍👍
Mike Smedley thanks man
Cabin fever mike ?
HECK NO!! This was just a few days ago. I fish more this time of year than summer actually. You need to move down here 😜😜
GET IT ....were up in jersey with cabin fever cleaning rods an replacing hooks on top water an other striper / fishing gear. Just waiting
Joe Peverelle SOON! 😁
My uncle looks outta place without me there. Just saying😂
😉😉😉
I've only done it in lakes. I didn't know side scan was even a thing 😳 MY WHOLE LIFE IS A LIE
Oh yeah. It’s a thing 😁😁👍👍
side scan, big boat, large reels, pricey braid .....i'll stick with my bank fishing.....nice fish tho...
👍
thats cruel, using a live bait.
This video is not very informative on what types of lures to use or tackle tips. I wouldn't consider it a "how to video" at all! It's more of a watch us fish video.
I guess it’s all subjective.Some of the “absolutely best” kept secrets are revealed in this video.
You need to cut your bangs
😂😂😂🤣🤣. I see what you did there!! 👍👍
