Crappie
Crappie fishing near New Concord, Ohio, can be quite rewarding, especially at Seneca Lake and other smaller impoundments in the area. These lakes offer good habitat for crappie, including submerged timber, brush piles, and weed beds. Spring is undoubtedly the best time to target crappie, as they move into the shallows to spawn. Focus on areas with brush or submerged structure in 4-8 feet of water. Small jigs and minnows fished under a bobber are classic crappie presentations that work well here. A local pro-tip: try fishing near the bridge pilings at Seneca Lake; they often hold schools of crappie. Be aware that Seneca Lake can experience fluctuating water levels, so check the lake conditions before you go. The crappie in this region tend to be a mix of black and white crappie, with some surprisingly large fish in the mix.
