    Red face Hillsdale Lake


    Good bite yesterday, minnows or jigs, fishing the bridge was interesting with the boats covering most of the water. Get there early if you want a prime spot. Found fish on the damn, not the usual 10 inchers, larger. NOW THE TIME TO FISH THE FALL PATTERN

    Well Lee and I arrived early at Hillsdale and there were still two boats ahead of us and two more behind us so I guess that means the bite is on! Ron and John were about an hour behind us but still outfished us .....they must have a top secret bait!? We both fished the bridge and dam and it was definitely a fall pattern but for us we used only plastics in a variety of colors....3/8 oz. jigs and 3inch baits. A very pleasurable day on the water even with Ron and John stealing our fish!Name: 20161121_070001.jpg Views: 1038 Size: 43.8 KBName: 20161121_070224.jpg Views: 1002 Size: 65.7 KBThe bonus of getting to the lake early....beautiful sunrise!Name: 20161121_143816.jpg Views: 958 Size: 86.6 KBLee let me catch a bonus walleye for the second Monday in a row....what a nice guyName: 20161121_191014.jpg Views: 949 Size: 24.7 KBMy wife and daughter got to choose between walleye nuggets and crappie fillets!

    Went to Hillsdale yesterday and fished just north (?) of the bridge. Caught 10 keepers (18 total) + 2 walleye in 3 hrs mid day. Largest crappie 14.5". 21-23 fow fishing, 1-2 ft off bottom.
    I appreciate all the advice you all have provided over the past years. It must be helping or the crappie are getting dumber.
    I fish; therefore I am.
