Crappie
Crappie fishing near Kirbyville offers a blend of opportunities in both larger reservoirs and smaller, more intimate settings. While Sam Rayburn Reservoir is a popular destination, don't overlook the smaller lakes and river backwaters in the area. These can be especially productive in the spring when crappie move shallow to spawn. Focus your efforts around submerged timber, brush piles, and boat docks. Minnows and jigs are the go-to baits, but small crankbaits can also be effective. A key tip is to target areas with slightly stained water, as this provides crappie with cover and ambush points. Fall is another excellent time to fish for crappie as they school up before winter. Many areas are accessible by boat, but there are also several bank fishing opportunities available, particularly around bridge crossings and public parks. The crappie in this region tend to be well-fed and can reach impressive sizes, making for a rewarding fishing experience.
