Crappie
While the Rogue River is renowned for its salmon and steelhead, savvy anglers know it also holds a decent population of crappie in certain areas. These panfish tend to congregate in the slower-moving sections of the river and in the backwaters and sloughs connected to the main channel. The best time to target Rogue River crappie is during the spring spawning season, typically April and May, when they move into shallow, protected areas to reproduce. Focus on areas with submerged vegetation or woody debris, which provide cover and attract baitfish. One particularly productive spot can be the backwaters near Agness. Access to these areas often requires a boat, so consider launching from one of the many boat ramps along the lower Rogue. Local tip: use small jigs or minnows suspended under a bobber near structure. The Rogue's crappie aren't huge, but they're a welcome addition to any angler's creel, especially when the salmon and steelhead fishing is slow.
