Crappie
If you're looking for slab crappies in central Minnesota, the waters around Trommald offer some excellent opportunities. The smaller lakes and flowages connected to the Mississippi River near Trommald are known for their healthy crappie populations. Focus your efforts on areas with submerged timber, weed edges, and brush piles, as crappies love to congregate around structure. Spring is prime time, as the crappies move into the shallows to spawn, but the fall can also be productive as they fatten up for winter. Ice fishing is very popular as well. A local tip: Many of these lakes are accessed via county roads; be sure to check road conditions, especially during spring thaw. Also, be aware that some smaller lakes may have limited public access, so scout your spots beforehand. The crappies in this area tend to be good-sized, with some reaching over 12 inches, making for a rewarding fishing experience.
