Crappie
If you're chasing crappie in North Dakota, Tower City offers some under-the-radar opportunities. While not a crappie mecca, the Sheyenne River and nearby smaller lakes and reservoirs hold populations worth exploring. Look for crappie around submerged timber, bridge pilings, and weed edges – classic crappie habitat. Spring, particularly May and early June, is prime time as the crappie move shallow to spawn. Fall can also be productive as they feed up before winter. A small boat or kayak is ideal for accessing many of these spots. A local tip: check water levels on the Sheyenne River before you go, as fluctuating levels can impact crappie location and activity. Also, the crappie here tend to run smaller than in some other parts of the state, but what they lack in size, they make up for in numbers. Light tackle and small jigs are your best bet for success.
