Crappie

freshwater

If you're after crappie near Fenwick, Connecticut, you'll want to explore the quieter waters slightly inland. While the immediate coastal area isn't ideal, heading towards the Connecticut River and its tributaries opens up some solid crappie fishing. Look for areas with submerged structure like brush piles, docks, and bridge pilings. These provide cover that crappie love. Spring is arguably the best time to target them, as they move into shallow areas to spawn. Small jigs under a bobber are a classic and effective presentation. Minnows can also be deadly. Many smaller ponds and lakes in the surrounding towns also hold crappie populations; check local regulations for access and permits. A key tip: crappie tend to school, so if you catch one, stick around – there are likely more nearby. Early morning and late afternoon are typically the most productive times.
