Crappie
If you're looking for slabs in South Dakota, Britton offers some excellent crappie fishing opportunities, particularly in the numerous glacial lakes and sloughs that dot the landscape. These bodies of water, often shallow and weedy, provide ideal habitat for crappie to thrive. Spring is prime time, as the crappie move into the shallows to spawn. Look for them around submerged timber, weed beds, and docks. A small jig tipped with a minnow or waxworm is a deadly presentation. Fall can also be productive as the crappie school up before winter. For access, check out local favorites such as Buffalo Lake or Clear Lake. Remember that many access points are seasonal, so check local conditions. Also, be mindful of private property surrounding the lakes. South Dakota Game, Fish & Parks provides detailed lake maps and fishing reports which are invaluable for planning your trip. Britton's crappie tend to be good-sized, with many exceeding the 10-inch mark, so be prepared for some exciting action.
