Hillsdale's Brushpiles

Where can you find the gps coordinates? I thought I used to see em on kwdp's site but I can't find em.

Send me an PM with your email address and i will email them to you.

Here ya go.

thanks nate. now if you can just tell me which ones have all the fish on em!

Thanks big nate a buddy of mine out that way been wanting those.

Where can we go to find these for other kansas lakes?

i must be doing something wrong. i cant get it to take those numbers. any help in the format of degrees/min/sec would be great. thanks

It is easy to convert Dec degree into Degree minute second coordinates all you have to do is keep the whole number it becomes your degree, the decimal gets multiplied by 60, that whole number becomes your minute figure and the left over decimal gets multiplied by 60 and that whole number becomes your seconds figure, and the left over decimal gets discarded.

For brush pile 1
Degree.decimal - Degree/minute/second
N38.64805 - N38⁰38’52”
W094.93048 - W094⁰55’49”

In the north coordinate 38 becomes your degree figure you are left with .64805 you multiply this number by 60.
.64805 x 60 = 38.883 – 38 becomes your minute coordinate, and you once again multiply the decimal by 60.
.883 x 60 = 52.98 – 52 becomes your second coordinate and the decimal is discarded giving your
38 degree, 38 minute, 52 second or N38⁰38’52” you repeat the process for the West coordinate

W094.93048 – 94 becomes your Degree W094⁰ and the decimal gets multiplied by 60
.93048 x 60 = 55.8288 55 becomes your minute W094⁰55’ and the decimal gets multiplied by 60
.8288 x 60 = 49.728 – 49 becomes your second W094⁰55’49” so the Degree/minute/second format for bp1 is N38⁰38’52" W094⁰55’49”.
However the lazier way of doing this is going to a website that has a converter and you just type the dec degree in and it will give you the Degree/Min/Sec format. Here is one of those websites. http://transition.fcc.gov/mb/audio/b...S-decimal.html

I entered those into my two units. Thanks guys. Now if I can only make the fish bite....:cheers2

If you don't want to do the math, the FCC's website will convert them for you

I went to one of the coordinates the other day in crappie cove. The brush pile wasn't a tiny thing, it was huge! I was impressed.

OK I consider myself somewhat familiar with Hillsdale Lake but in no way would I consider myself as anyone very competent at being able to consistently have successful outings there but just to expose how little I do know about Hillsdale Lake - I do wonder if I'm the only one here that wouldn't have a clue where to go if someone said to meet them in crappie cove on Hillsdale Lake? :dono :o :scratchhead :biggrin

There is a campsite named Crappie Cove. I'm assuming just outside that campground is where he's talking about.

Ta-da Crappie Cove now I know. :biggrin

Campsite Map V2 - Hillsdale State Park, KS - ReserveAmerica - [KS]

I am heading to olathe this weekend to the in-laws house and gonna head to the lake with the bro-in-law and nephews. Hillsdale is close so thats our choice. I've been trying to convert these waypoint to lowrance format with no luck. By chance does anyone have these in lowrance that they wouldn't mind sharing? might be a shot in the dark but worth trying!

Forget the brush piles in the summer time. Find a row of trees and fish them. A minute or two only on each tree in the summer time.
