Crappie
If you're chasing crappie in the Attleboro, MA area, you'll want to focus your efforts on the numerous smaller ponds and lakes that dot the landscape. These bodies of water often provide the ideal habitat for crappie, with plenty of submerged structure and vegetation to hold fish. Prime time is during the pre-spawn period in the spring (late April to early May) when crappie move into the shallows to prepare for spawning. Then again in the fall, as water temperatures cool and crappie feed aggressively before winter. Look for areas with submerged trees, docks, or weed beds. A small jig or minnow suspended under a bobber is a classic and effective presentation. A local tip: check out Lake Mirimichi; it has a public boat ramp and a reputation for holding decent-sized crappie. Also, remember that smaller, less-pressured ponds often hold the biggest surprises. The crappie here aren't particularly pressured but can be finicky, so experiment with your presentation and retrieve until you find what they want.
