If your down there for the entire week then the smallmouth bite should be good this Friday, Saturday and Sunday...they're calling for rain and overcast. I don't know much about Dale Hollow smallmouth but I do know they act a lot like Cumberland smallmouth and the more nasty the weather the better they bite. Sun and blue bird skies like we had today is the kiss of death on the deep clear water lakes like Dale and Cumberland.

I was on Barren today and had what I refer to as a Grand Slam in the state of KY...a keeper spot, keeper smallmouth and a keeper largemouth. I had a decent limit buy mid morning and then it shut off pretty quick...nothing big best 5 around 12-13lbs.
