Windy Shoreline equals fish

The weather can be fairly cool or cold on these November days on the water, but don't let that get in your way of catching some fish. As November moves forward, the fish are feeding more all the time as the water cools and by fishing the windy shorelines, this can put more fish into your boat. As the northerly winds blow, the wind is also blowing baitfish into these windy shorelines and the predator fish are following close behind. The wind also stirs up the water quite a bit and this puts loads of food into the water that attracts the baitfish to these windy shorelines as well which in turn brings the predator fish. Baits of choice to fish these areas are Crankbaits, Spinnerbaits, Jigs, Rattle Traps, Jerkbaits and also don't be afraid to throw some Swimbaits in there as well. Boat control can be a little tricky at times, but if you can get over that you may be well rewarded at the end of the day with numbers and sizes of fish caught. Put a couple of extra layers of clothes on and get out there into those windy areas and catch those fish.
