Seasonal Activity Chart
Crappie
Crappie fishing near Keene, Texas, centers around the Brazos River and nearby reservoirs like Lake Pat Cleburne and Lake Whitney. These waters offer diverse habitats, from submerged timber to rocky ledges, ideal for crappie to thrive. Spring is prime time, as crappie move into the shallows to spawn. Look for them in brush piles and around docks in 5-10 feet of water. Fall can also be productive as the water cools and crappie feed heavily before winter. A local tip: Lake Pat Cleburne is smaller and can warm up faster in the spring, making it a good early-season option. For bank access, try the Cleburne State Park shoreline on Lake Pat Cleburne. The crappie here tend to be good-sized, with many anglers reporting catches over a pound. Minnows and small jigs are the go-to baits. Remember to check the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department regulations for any specific size or bag limits on these lakes.
