Crappie
Crappie fishing near Antonito, Colorado, focuses primarily on the reservoirs and smaller lakes in the surrounding area. While not a major crappie destination, these waters can offer decent fishing, especially during the spring spawn. Look for crappie around submerged trees, brush piles, and weed beds. Small jigs, minnows, or crappie nibbles fished under a bobber are effective presentations. The spring spawning season, typically in April and May, is the best time to target crappie when they move into shallower water to spawn. Check local regulations for specific size and bag limits. Remember that water levels in these reservoirs can vary, so be sure to check conditions before heading out. A smaller boat or kayak can be advantageous for accessing some of the more secluded areas. Talk to local anglers at the Antonito General Store for the latest intel on water levels and where the crappie are being caught.
