Crappie
Anglers around Blunt, South Dakota, can find excellent crappie fishing in Lake Sharpe. This expansive reservoir offers plenty of habitat for crappie to thrive. Spring is the prime time to target these tasty panfish as they move into shallow bays and coves to spawn. Look for them around submerged timber, brush piles, and docks in water depths of 5-10 feet. A key tip for fishing crappie in Lake Sharpe is to use small jigs or minnows suspended under a bobber. Pay attention to water temperature, as crappie become more active as the water warms up. As the summer progresses, they tend to move to deeper water near submerged structure. The crappie in Lake Sharpe are known to be relatively good-sized, with some fish reaching over 12 inches. Several boat ramps provide easy access to the lake, and many anglers also fish from shore near the state park areas.
