Crappie fishing near Halsey, Nebraska, centers around the small lakes and ponds of the Sandhills region. While not a renowned crappie destination, these often-overlooked waters can provide surprisingly good action. The key is finding areas with submerged vegetation or woody structure, as crappie use these for cover. Spring is the prime time, as crappie move into the shallows to spawn. A simple jig tipped with a minnow or crappie nibble is often all you need. Summer evenings can also be productive, especially around submerged lights if available. Access can be a challenge, as many of the best crappie lakes are on private land. Always obtain permission before fishing on private property. The crappie in these Sandhills lakes tend to be smaller on average, but they can be plentiful. Focus on fishing around sunset and sunrise for the best results. Be mindful of the fragile Sandhills ecosystem and practice leave-no-trace principles.
