Posted

Lake Meredith: GOOD. Water stained; 70 degrees; 53.39 feet low. Bass are good in the shallows on minnows and artificial baits. Catfish are good on live, stink, and punch baits. Crappie are excellent best on minnows, but jigs, grubs and other artificials will get it done too. Trout are slow, some still being caught on power baits and small spinners. Walleye are excellent on minnows, nightcrawlers, crankbaits, grubs, and other artificials. Many are catching limits. Overall the bite is in full swing. Please be safe, watch weather reports. Life vests save lives. Hope this helps you enjoy the lake. Report by Kenneth Wysong, SharKens Honey hole.
