Did a two day trip out to Lake Meredith. Launched at the dam ramp with 5 billion wake boats. Fishing very slow around most of the lake. Then I fished under the big tire breakwater in the middle of the cove. Caught a bluegill on every cast The biggest was just under 9”. Lots of 2 pound largemouth scattered in. Never fished the lake before so it was a fun trip.

Glad you found some fish. Nice post.

Super day ! Take any pics ?

Always a good time fishing new water. Good job finding some fish.

Here is one. I didn’t take many pictures of fish because my lovely wife kept sticking a fish in front of me to unhook.



She is always coming up with something for me to deal with. And I love it.

Nice post and fish. Thanks for sharing.

That's a pretty decent Lake Meredith shark.

Now ya done it! I'm gonna have to put the tube on Merideth this weekend!

The shark was a blacktip my wife caught out of Port Aransas. It was the biggest blacktip I have ever seen, at just under 8 feet. It was pregnant and probably would have been the new state record, but my wife didn’t want to harvest it so we just let it go.

Awesome fish!

That was a very impressive black tip for sure. My son wrestled one to the side of the boat that the capt. estimated at 125 pounds or so. We did not boat it as we already had out 1 per person shark limits.

Nice fish. It is always a good thing when your wife is your fishing buddy!

I am truly blessed on that front. My wife has put up with all of my Wildlife weirdness for over 40 years.
