Crappie
If you're looking to fill your cooler with crappie near Copperas Cove, Texas, you'll want to focus your efforts on Stillhouse Hollow Lake and Belton Lake. These reservoirs offer excellent crappie habitat, with plenty of submerged timber, brush piles, and rocky ledges where crappie congregate. Spring is prime time, as crappie move into the shallows to spawn. Look for them in coves and creek arms in 5-15 feet of water. A simple jig under a bobber or a minnow on a small hook is hard to beat. Another productive period is the fall, as water temperatures cool and crappie begin to feed heavily before winter. Focus on deeper structure then, using your electronics to locate schools of fish. A local tip: check the Stillhouse Hollow Lake boat ramps early, especially on weekends, as they can get crowded. Also, be aware of fluctuating water levels on both lakes, which can impact crappie location and behavior.
