Crappie
Crappie anglers, Warsaw, Indiana, is worth a look! The area's chain of lakes, including Big Chapman, Little Chapman, and Winona Lake, are known for their crappie populations. Spring is undoubtedly the best time to target them, as they move into the shallows to spawn (usually April and May). Use small jigs under bobbers around docks, brush piles, and submerged timber. Minnows are also incredibly effective. As the water warms in the summer, crappie will move deeper, suspending around structure. Try using your electronics to locate schools and then drop jigs or minnows down to them. A local tip: Little Chapman Lake is smaller and often overlooked, but it can hold some surprisingly good crappie. Be mindful of the weed growth, which can get thick in the summer. Fish the edges of the weedbeds for the best results.
