Go to the tailrace at Smith Lake dam. Use red worms. Small tackle with 10lb or smaller line although 12 will work. Tiny hooks, 8 or 10 size and one split shot of the smallest size you can find.
Sit on the bench in the middle and prop your rod over the edge of the rail and drop straight down. Watch the bait (yes, you'll be able to see it) and set the hook when you have one on.
You will catch rainbow trout over a pound all day if the water is not running. If they stop biting, throw a few worms in the water near your bait one at a time and they will crank right back up.
Whoever is happy will make others happy too. Anne Frank

Smith is a topwater lake year round depending on time of day, cloud cover, and water clarity. Just gotta be willing to throw a spook in 60-100ft of water sometimes.
