Crappie
Crappie fishing around Plain City, Ohio, centers on small lakes, ponds, and backwaters associated with the Big Darby Creek watershed. While not a renowned crappie destination, these smaller bodies of water can hold decent populations of crappie, especially during the spring spawning season. Look for them congregating around submerged structure like brush piles, fallen trees, and docks in shallow water. Early spring, from late April through May, is the peak time to target crappie as they move into these areas to spawn. Small jigs tipped with minnows or waxworms are effective baits. Fishing under a bobber is a good tactic to suspend your bait at the desired depth. A local tip: many of these smaller ponds are on private property, so always obtain permission before fishing. The crappie in this area tend to be on the smaller side, but you can still find some keepers with persistence and the right presentation.
