Crappie
Crappie may not be the first species that comes to mind when thinking of Lake George, Colorado, but they are present and can offer some exciting fishing opportunities. Focus your efforts in the shallower, weedy areas of the lake, particularly during the spring spawn. These fish tend to congregate around submerged structure, so using a fish finder to locate brush piles or fallen trees can be highly effective. Small jigs and minnows are the go-to baits. A local tip: try fishing under a bobber to keep your bait suspended just above the weeds. While the Crappie in Lake George may not reach trophy sizes, they are plentiful and can provide a fun day of fishing, especially for families. Be aware that water levels can fluctuate, so check conditions before heading out.
