Crappie
Crappie enthusiasts will find some decent fishing opportunities around Westminster, Maryland. While not necessarily a destination fishery, the local lakes and ponds hold populations of both black and white crappie. Piney Run Lake is a good starting point, offering accessible shoreline and boat rentals. The crappie tend to congregate around submerged structure, so focus your efforts near fallen trees, brush piles, and docks. Spring is prime time for crappie fishing as they move into shallower waters to spawn. Small jigs and minnows are the go-to baits. For a local tip, try fishing under a bobber to keep your bait suspended at the right depth, especially when targeting crappie in deeper water. Be mindful of the regulations at Piney Run, including creel limits and size restrictions. Also, early morning and late evening are usually the most productive times.
