Made the drive out to meldahl thanksgiving weekend fished from bank. New fishing area is open. Easy access from bank all way to the old sandbar but u cant fish up against the new wall. There is a no fishing beyond this point sign about 50 yards from wall. I caught 3 just before daylight and then took me til noon to catch 2 more. Everyone i talked to said night bite is on pretty good but down in sandbar area. Good luck
