Crappie
If you're after Crappie near Jasper, Sam Rayburn Reservoir is where you need to be. The lake's flooded timber provides ideal habitat for these tasty panfish. Spring is the peak season, as crappie move shallow to spawn. Minnows and jigs fished around brush piles and submerged trees are your best bet. A local secret: Focus on the back of coves and creek channels after a warming trend in early spring. The crappie in Sam Rayburn can get quite large; it's not uncommon to catch slabs over two pounds. The Umphrey Pavilion boat ramp provides good access to productive crappie areas. Remember to check the daily bag and size limits before you head out.
