Crappie

Crappie

freshwater

Crappie fishing around Bucyrus, Ohio, focuses on the smaller lakes and reservoirs dotting the landscape. While not a renowned crappie destination, these waters can offer consistent action, especially during the spring spawn. Look for crappie congregated near submerged timber, brush piles, and docks in the shallows as the water warms. Early spring, just as the ice melts, and again during the pre-spawn period are excellent times to target them. A simple setup of a minnow under a bobber is a classic choice, but small jigs in various colors can also be effective. A local's secret: Many of the smaller, less-publicized ponds can hold surprisingly large crappie, so it pays to do some scouting and ask around at local bait shops. Also, be mindful of water clarity. In clearer water, use lighter line and more natural-colored baits. The crappie here tend to be wary, so stealth is key.
