Crappie
Aneta, North Dakota, offers some decent crappie fishing opportunities, especially in the numerous small lakes and reservoirs scattered throughout the region. These prairie potholes, as they're sometimes called, can be surprisingly productive. Focus your efforts on areas with submerged vegetation, brush piles, or other structure where crappie like to congregate. Spring is the peak season, when crappie move into shallow water to spawn. A simple jig tipped with a minnow or crappie tube, fished under a bobber, is a classic and effective presentation. Lake Ashtabula, a short drive from Aneta, can also be a good option, particularly in the bays and backwaters. Local knowledge is key: ask at local bait shops for the latest hotspots. A tip for success is to pay attention to water clarity, as crappie can be finicky in murky water. If the water is muddy, try using brighter colored lures.
