The water levels have dropped a little at Jackson Meadows Reservoir, but the bite by the dam is still good. Shore anglers are having success using inflated nightcrawlers, powerbait, or casting spoons and spinners. Anglers trolling are still doing well for browns and rainbows in 40 to 60 feet of water. Some recommended bait to try is dodgers and worms, dodgers and flies, or crocodile spoons.
