Crappie
For crappie anglers visiting Munford, the smaller, quieter lakes and oxbows off the nearby Mississippi River offer some excellent opportunities. These backwater areas provide ideal habitat for crappie, with plenty of submerged structure and vegetation. Spring is the prime time, as crappie move into the shallows to spawn. Look for them around cypress trees, brush piles, and fallen logs. A jig and bobber is a classic crappie rig, or try small minnows. A helpful local tip: many anglers swear by using brightly colored jigs in these murky waters, as they help the crappie locate the bait. Be aware that water levels can fluctuate significantly depending on river conditions, so check the forecast before heading out. Also, be mindful of the presence of alligators in some of these backwater areas.
