SPEEDBEAD. reply : 

Hey PA and norther MD guys....

Just talked to Paul, the guy running the T's, and he told me the first date for MG this year is 6/28.

Bring everyone you can, we finally have a full lake to fish again!!!!

Hopefully with more water and "the secret weapon" we can practice our check cashing technique this summer!!!

Zel... reply : 

Where is Medowgrounds, what type of lake is it, and what type of structure does it hold?

---

SPEEDBEAD. reply : 

Its down here by me Zel, in SCPA.

Small, electric only lake. Humps, drops and shoreline cover are the dominant features where most bass are caught.  Many of the drops have scattered wood cover on it.

---

Zel... reply : 

LOL, at first I read your post as SPCA... I thought... you dog you!  

Can you give me a town close to it.  Also, does the lake have rocks, any lily pads or weeds or grass, and if the weeds or grass are matted or sparse.

If I don't fish it, want some of my secret PA plastics to try out?

Thanks

Zel,

The closest town is Mcconnellsburg. You can actually type in Meadow Grounds Lake in Google Maps and it will take you right to it.

Not sure what the grass will be like this year since it was so low last year. There are (or at least were) a couple small patches of lilly pads at the upper end.

---

BadKarma42 reply : 

I think there will either be a lot of grass or a lot of dead grass.

There was a lot of new growth and vegitation popping up when the water was down.

Zel... reply : 

Thanks for the info guys.  But 150 miles as the crow flies is a bit far for a one day tourney for me.

Zel... reply : 

Guys... no whoop, just a little snoop from the troop to try and get the scoop.

I have historically done well at tournaments fishing lakes I knew nothing about.  It's only when I get to know the lake that I have no clue what to do.  :

BadKarma42 reply : 

Well in that case let me tell you all you need to know!

Just  having some fun with you.

Mobydick reply : 

More water.............whooo hoooooooooooo!!!!!!! Problem is, gas is to expensive, I may be able to hit one this year though. Last year, it took so long to get the boats in the water cuz everyone, including me, got their boat hung on that stump by the boat launch, I never thought they would refill it.... ;D

94 degrees and virtually no shade on MG?

At least the wind will surely be a blowin'    :  LOL

basser89 reply : 

Windy on MG? Never seen that before! LOL! A little chop on the water, well you know what I'd be throwing! Stay positive and you'll gettem! Have you been out there since the last tourney to probe those "new" spots you had found?

---

Zel... reply : 

Just throw a * out there and let it sit and sit and sit.  My son-in-law has been doing this lately in the really hot weather with good results (I don't have the patience).  I think deadsticking it might be key.

Negative, I have not.  That is where some of the issues arise.

Zel, just purchased a ML Extreme rod last night and have some of those heads you told me about.  Will be combining those w/ the discontinued item you sent me in the hopes of pulling out keepers.

The swimbait rod will be there for later

basser89 reply : 

Bummer! I haven't been able to get out on a few spots I'd like to hit nearly as much as I'd like either so I feel your pain!

---

SPEEDBEAD. reply : 

Sean, check your musky thread     LOL

---

Mobydick reply : 

What time does it start?

And how much is the fee, and the big bass fee?

Thanks guys!
