Lake Meridian Bass Fishing
Im relatively new to bass fishing and I live really close to Lake Meridian, and have a little boat. Could anyone give me some pointers on bass fishing in general, and give me some tips on Lake Meridian.
Re: Lake Meridian Bass Fishing
Ive never fished Meridian, so no help there. However, bass fishing is pretty much bass fishing where ever you go 
Unfortunately, there is no way to give you even a beginners first lesson on bass fishing in one post. It would take hours of typing. Learning to bass fish isnt something that you can do in 5 minutes
You are going to have to spend the time reading and watching videos.
Id recommend you Google "bass fishing" and get ready to spend the next several days in front of your computer
You can also read the Forums on this site about bass fishing as well as watch the many videos on here. Id also search the lake reports on Meridian for bass reports. That will give you tons of info.

Re: Lake Meridian Bass Fishing
Haven't fished that one, but looking at the map the south end looks pretty shallow and would likely be a good place to start this time of year.

Pretty easy lake dock fishing all day.
Re: Lake Meridian Bass Fishing
Thanks for all the help. I've been studying and picked up some new gear and hope to catch some good bass on Meridian. Does anyone know of any Smallmouth in the lake?
Re: Lake Meridian Bass Fishing
I know a few of the Smallies in Meridian. I've probably caught most of them over the past 40 plus years. ![Laugh [laugh]](./images/smilies/msp_laugh.gif)

Re: Lake Meridian Bass Fishing
I've seen them in the weeds close to one end of the dock structure where folks target trout. Almost nabbed one with a jig and trailer from the dock. If this is the south end of the lake, then that ought to be a good start.
