Crappie
Crappie fishing near Westbrook, Maine, can be surprisingly rewarding if you know where to look. While not as widespread as other species, they inhabit several local ponds and slow-moving sections of rivers. Seek out waters with submerged structure, such as fallen trees, docks, and weed beds. These provide cover and attract the small baitfish that crappie feed on. Spring is the prime time to target crappie, as they move into shallow water to spawn. Small jigs tipped with live minnows or plastic trailers are highly effective. A slip bobber rig allows you to present your bait at the desired depth. Consider exploring smaller, less-known ponds in the Westbrook area, as these often hold overlooked crappie populations. Early morning and late afternoon are typically the best times to fish. Crappie in this region are generally of average size, but you can occasionally find some larger slabs. Be sure to check the specific regulations for the waterbody you are fishing, as there may be size or bag limits.
