Crappie
Crappie fishing near Eugene can be surprisingly good in Fern Ridge Reservoir. This often-overlooked panfish provides a fun and accessible angling experience. Spring is the best time to target crappie, as they move into the shallows to spawn. Look for them around submerged brush, docks, and weed beds. Small jigs and minnows are effective baits. As the water warms in the summer, crappie will move to deeper water, often suspending near structure. A local tip is to use a bobber to present your bait at the correct depth. The Richardson Bridge area is known to hold good numbers of crappie. Remember to practice catch-and-release, as crappie populations can be sensitive to overfishing.
