Crappie fishing near Warba, Minnesota, offers a chance to find some hidden gems away from the crowds. The region is dotted with smaller lakes and flowages that hold surprisingly good populations of crappie. Springtime, as the water warms, is when crappies move into shallow bays and inlets to spawn, making them easier to target. Look for them around submerged brush, fallen trees, and docks. Small jigs tipped with minnows or plastics are effective baits, fished under a bobber or slowly retrieved. As the water warms in the summer, crappies tend to move to deeper water near weed lines and submerged structure. A local tip: many anglers find success using their electronics to locate schools of crappie suspended in deeper water. Also, be aware that some of the smaller lakes can be susceptible to winterkill, so check local fishing reports for recent information on crappie populations.
