Crappie
Crappie fishing around Vian, Oklahoma, is excellent thanks to its proximity to Lake Tenkiller. This clear-water reservoir is known for its thriving crappie population. Target submerged timber, brush piles, and docks, especially in the spring during the pre-spawn and spawn. Minnows and small jigs are the go-to baits. As the water warms in the summer, crappie tend to move deeper, so adjust your tactics accordingly. Fall can also be a productive time as crappie school up again before winter. A local tip: many anglers have success spider-rigging multiple rods with minnows or jigs at different depths to locate the fish. Also, check the local fishing reports for the latest information on crappie locations and depths. Lake Tenkiller crappie can be notoriously finicky, so experiment with different colors and presentations until you find what works.
