Crappie
Crappie fishing near Kingsbury can be quite rewarding, especially in the numerous lakes and ponds scattered throughout the area. These panfish thrive in the weedy, structure-rich environments common in northern Indiana. Spring is prime time, as crappie move into shallow waters to spawn. Target areas with submerged timber, brush piles, or weed beds in water depths of 4-8 feet. Small jigs tipped with minnows or tube baits are highly effective. Another productive period is late fall, as crappie school up in deeper water before winter. Look for them near drop-offs or creek channels. Access to many of these lakes is available through the Kingsbury Fish and Wildlife Area. Be aware that some areas may have limited boat access, so a small boat or kayak can be advantageous. The crappie here are known for their good eating quality, with many fish reaching 10-12 inches.
