Crappie
Crappie anglers visiting Lennon, Michigan will find several promising locations for targeting these tasty panfish. Local lakes and ponds hold good populations of crappie, offering both size and numbers. Look for submerged structure, such as brush piles, fallen trees, and docks, as these are prime crappie hangouts. Spring, during the pre-spawn and spawn, is the most productive time, when crappie move into shallow water to reproduce. Small jigs, minnows, and tube baits are all effective presentations. A slip bobber rig is a great way to present your bait at the desired depth. Many of the smaller lakes in the area have boat launches, but some may be limited to smaller boats or canoes/kayaks. A local tip: check with local bait shops for recent crappie hotspots and water conditions. Early morning and late evening are often the best times to target crappie, especially during the warmer months.
