Title: Fishing reports - Jackson/Hillsdale/Lenawee/Washtenaw
Post by: Michigan Mafia on Jan 13, 2010, 10:15 AM
I've been searching the IS forums for fishing reports in these counties and the info seems to be scattered around, so I thought it would be a good idea to start a thread for these counties.

I will start it off with my report from last weekend. I fished Gilletts lake in Jackson county Saturday evening in about 15 fow near the county park and only caught a few small crappie and a small cat fish. Went back out Sunday evening and fished in 6 fow near the sandbar and caught a lot of small gills and about a dozen keeper crappie.

Going out to Wamplers this weekend to do a little pre fishing for the Midwest open, not sure if I can give a report on that though.  ;D

Thanks for the report fellas.

I fished Lake Columbia a few weeks ago and did pretty good. I caught quite a few eater gills, a good sized bass, and some decent crappie in about 12 fow. There was a guy fishing behind us that pulled up a really nice fat walleye.
