I've never fished Mead but if it's similar to Skinner then you should be on the lookout for the surface boils and get to them ASAP. They usually happen around sunset and quickly move from spot to spot.
Yea I've been told that being able to move quickly is key, I'm pretty much stuck to the vicinity of the houseboat so hopefully the stripers come to me haha
