Thread: Three Fun Days on the Hill

After missing out on fishing for over a month following hand surgery, I finally got to make up for lost time this past week, fishing on Wednesday, Friday, and Saturday.

I brought the boat out of mothballs, and I spent three fun mornings on the Hill, starting around 8:30 and finishing around noon.

The lake showed heavy stain, high water, and an abundance of floating trash ranging from tiny stuff to trees longer than my boat.

I did notice the lake levels drop significantly from Wednesday to Saturday.

The good news was an abundance of bites and bent rods. I totaled approximately 130 crappie over the three mornings and had a ton of fun. All were caught long line trolling in 6-20 ft of water.

If there was a downside, it was that the overall size of the fish decreased significantly from the previous week according to the photos and reports of those who were able to go during both times.

But it was a joy to be out there, and I can't wait to go again!
