Crappie
Crappie fishing near Redmond, Oregon, isn't as well-known as some other species, but several smaller reservoirs and ponds in the area hold populations of these panfish. While not trophy-sized, they can provide fun and fast action, especially for families. The best time to target crappie is during the spring spawning season (April-May) when they move into shallow water to spawn. Look for brush piles, submerged trees, and weed beds, which provide cover for crappie. A local tip: try fishing with small jigs or minnows suspended under a bobber near structure. Some of the smaller, unnamed reservoirs on BLM land can be surprisingly productive. Be aware that water levels can fluctuate, so check conditions before heading out. The crappie population here is relatively small, so practice selective harvesting to help maintain the fishery.
