Good for you Jonathan, Medina is a great lake close to San Antonio. Best of luck to you, wave if you see me on the water. ************* Medina Lake was impounded in 1913 and is approx 40 miles NW of San Antonio, clear body of water with a depth of around 150 ft., aquatic vegetation is sparse. The largemouth lake record still stands today a 13lber caught in 1943, and the smallmouth record 6+ in 1993. The last stocking was in 2005. My brother and I have caught several nice bass over the years. When we were growing up this lake was practically in our backyard. My picture is from this year and his from last year in a local tournament.   Debra

Thanks for the kind words. I fish Medina almost every weekend. 24ft Southbay Pontoon. Jet Black with 115hp Mercury. I have a skeleton fish decal on the back. Give me a shout if you are on the lake.

I've never fished Medina, but have been thinking about giving it a try. is it as clear as Canyon Lake? Where's the best place to launch coming from San Anton?

Jonathan you are welcome, good luck on the lake and will keep an eye out for you. I run a black and white Skeeter with a Yamaha. fishnbuds I launch and guide out of Joe's Place down at the dam if you want to launch there. Yes the water is clear. Debra
