Truth be told, I was targeting Kokes, but would have had to give a 1 star report. I wanted to give this lake a great report because it was the best it's ever been for me this year. I landed these 3 fa...

This was my first time launching at Lake Meridian. I had done some research and didn't expect much this time of year, or this time of day for that matter. As expected, I was the only boat fishing the ...
