Seasonal Activity Chart
Crappie
Crappie fishing in Blairsville is centered around Lake Nottely, a beautiful mountain reservoir known for its clear water and abundant crappie population. Spring is the peak season, as the crappie move into shallow coves and around submerged timber to spawn. Look for them in the backs of creeks and near any structure that provides cover. Minnows and small jigs are the go-to baits. Many anglers have success spider-rigging multiple rods around brush piles. During the summer months, crappie will often suspend deeper, near the thermocline. Trolling small crankbaits or jigging around submerged trees can be effective then. A popular access point is the Poteete Creek boat ramp, which provides good access to the upper end of the lake. The crappie in Nottely are known for their good size and are a favorite among local anglers.
