Crappie
For crappie enthusiasts, Holley, NY, might not be the first place that springs to mind, but the Erie Canal offers a surprisingly productive fishery. The key is finding areas with submerged structure – think fallen trees, weed beds, and docks. These spots provide the cover that crappie crave. Spring is prime time, as the crappie move into shallower water to spawn. A simple bobber and minnow rig is tough to beat, but small jigs can also be effective. Consider launching a kayak near the Holley Falls for some fantastic bank fishing opportunities. Be aware of boat traffic, especially during the summer months. The crappie in the Erie Canal tend to run a bit smaller than in larger lakes, but what they lack in size, they make up for in numbers, so expect plenty of action.
