Crappie
Crappie fishing near Tolley offers a chance to target these tasty panfish in the region's many smaller lakes and reservoirs. Spring and fall are prime times, as crappie tend to school up near structure as the water temperatures change. During the spring spawn, look for them in shallow bays with submerged vegetation or near docks. In the fall, they often move to deeper water near submerged timber or creek channels. A productive local tactic is to use small minnows or jigs suspended under a bobber near submerged trees. Many anglers have success slow-trolling jigs over known crappie holding areas. Be mindful of the wind, as it can quickly change conditions on these smaller lakes. While the crappie may not reach enormous sizes, they are often plentiful, making for a rewarding fishing experience.
