If you're after crappie, Remer, Minnesota, is a great place to start. The area boasts numerous lakes known for their healthy crappie populations. Focus your efforts on submerged timber, weed edges, and brush piles in lakes like Big Sand Lake or Spider Lake. Spring and fall are typically the best times to target crappie, as they move into shallower water to spawn in the spring and then again in the fall as the water cools. During the summer, they often suspend in deeper water near structure. A local tactic is to use small jigs tipped with minnows or plastics under a bobber, especially when fishing around structure. Also, be aware that some lakes around Remer have specific regulations regarding crappie size and bag limits, so be sure to check the current regulations before you head out. Many of the lakes have public access points and resorts that cater to anglers.
