• Tackle & Baits

  Access status is simply unknown for this water. This is a natural basin, not a dammed one. A pier or jetty stands half a mile away, which helps on a crowded bank. For the bass here, soft plastics worked slow along cover and a spinnerbait for searching do most of the work. Read any posted signs at the access point rather than assuming. Where tickets apply, they are sold in the nearest town rather than on the bank. Crooked Lake, 0.5 miles away, makes the obvious fallback. Rules at Meyer Lake are worth checking on the day.
