I've slayed 'em on Lake Meredith. The bonus is you are catching walleye at the same time. But that was many years ago. If Meredith ever comes back to 75% of what it once was, head up there for a unique and awesome fishing trip.
The solution to any problem - work, love, money, whatever - is to go fishing, and the worse the problem, the longer the trip should be. --John Gierach ![[Linked Image]](https://texasfishingforum.com/forums/pics/userpics/2019/09/full-13-25328-gco.jpg)

It’s right in front of my house and yes it has some smallies. Problem is you can only put a yak on it anymore: ![[Linked Image]](https://texasfishingforum.com/forums/pics/userpics/2022/07/full-34948-147083-d23f35f8_308e_4172_b499_154aa151802b.png) ![[Linked Image]](https://texasfishingforum.com/forums/pics/userpics/2022/07/full-34948-147084-2ad71ac6_473d_47c6_ada6_ca9a4ab7f7bf.jpeg)

Here's a Lake Meredith smallie from the mid 1990s. ![[Linked Image]](https://texasfishingforum.com/forums/pics/userpics/2022/07/full-13-147095-1910452_1073263922156_4691452_n.jpg)

Grapevine has more than most think They first stocked Grapevine with smallies in 1999. It was my home lake back in 2008 when they started stocking them regularly. I lived right by the lake and kept my Skeeter, kayaks and a few other things at Dove Loop Storage. We moved to East Texas in 2010 and I never got to catch a smallie on Grapevine. ![[Linked Image]](https://texasfishingforum.com/forums/pics/userpics/2022/07/full-13-147141-screenshot_2022_07_23_133218.jpg)

Fall time into winter is good at Texoma.
You have to hunt for them, they move a lot. But when you find them you can catch them pretty good.
