Fished Meridian Reed Lake this past Tuesday. Great trip, caught over a hundred, mostly smaller fish, 1-3 lbs with no big ones.

Lodging on Monday night was great. Very comfortable, Property hosts were great and very helpful and informative.

Kept 24 small fish under 14”

The lake is back to clear and the fishing is great for large numbers, Boats are a little different to fish out of but you get used to them quickly when you realize you can’t fish down wind in them.

The boats want to get sideways when going downwind. The backend wants to push towards the front. I noticed the same thing when I fished with on them.  It is hard to hold them straight. We are looking into a rudder to help.
