Crappie
Crappie fishing near Malinta, Ohio, revolves around finding the right structure in the area's ponds, lakes, and backwaters of the Maumee River. Spring is undoubtedly the best time to target crappie, as they move into shallow water to spawn. Look for them around submerged brush, docks, and weed beds in 4-8 feet of water. Small minnows and jigs are the go-to baits, fished under a bobber or slowly retrieved. While Independence Dam State Park provides access to the Maumee, the backwater areas are often weedy and shallow, requiring a small boat or kayak to effectively target crappie. Local ponds can also hold crappie, but be sure to obtain permission before fishing. The crappie in this region tend to run on the smaller side, but you can still find some decent slabs with persistence. Focus your efforts during the early morning or late evening hours when the crappie are most active. Keep an eye on water clarity, as murky water can make it harder for crappie to find your bait.
