Crappie
If you're chasing crappie near Laurel, Maryland, you'll want to focus your efforts on the local freshwater impoundments and the Patuxent River. The Little Patuxent and Rocky Gorge Reservoir are popular choices. Spring, particularly April and May, is prime time as crappie move into shallower waters to spawn. Fall can also be productive as they feed aggressively before winter. For Rocky Gorge, a boat is highly recommended to access the best fishing spots, but shoreline access is available near the dam. A local tip: try fishing around submerged timber or bridge pilings with small jigs or minnows under a bobber. Crappie in this area tend to be good-sized, but be aware of any specific size or creel limits for the Patuxent River and Rocky Gorge Reservoir, as they can vary.
