Crappie
Crappie anglers around Burgoon, Ohio, should set their sights on the area's reservoirs and ponds. While the Sandusky River itself isn't known for crappie, nearby lakes like Lake La Su An Wildlife Area offer good crappie fishing opportunities. Spring, during the pre-spawn and spawn, is undoubtedly the best time to target them. Look for crappie in shallow bays and near submerged structure like brush piles, fallen trees, and docks. Small jigs tipped with minnows or crappie nibbles are highly effective. A slip bobber rig is your friend for presenting baits at the right depth. Focus your efforts in areas with 4-8 feet of water. Local tip: Early morning and late evening are often the most productive times. Be sure to check the specific regulations for each body of water, as some may have size or creel limits. Many smaller local ponds hold crappie that are often overlooked, so some exploring can pay off.
