Used to fish Smithville lake years ago in our bass club, but then the weeds died and the fishing wasn't that great.

Has there been any change in the last few years? Is it worth taking a trip?

It looks like it has recovered well.

The weeds have come back this year pretty strong. Last time I was out on Smithville we were ripping crankbaits through them.

what are the thoughts on the return of the weeds?

I know about 15 years ago the Mo DNR was working to re-establish weeds...but what really happened
a.  to cause most to die off all those years ago and
b.  to return like they are 'now'?

Not for sure what happened to them in the first place but

I know alot of lakes are now involved in what they call "sport fish restoration" its a profect they started to reinstate the reputation of some of the local lakes.
