Crappie
Crappie fishing near Midway, Texas, can be quite rewarding, especially if you know where to look. The numerous small lakes and ponds scattered throughout Leon County, along with the backwaters of the Trinity River, provide ample habitat for these tasty panfish. Spring, during the pre-spawn and spawn, is the absolute best time to target crappie. Look for them around submerged brush piles, standing timber, and bridge pilings in shallow water. Minnows and jigs are the go-to baits. For boat access, check out some of the smaller private lakes that may offer day passes or memberships. Always confirm access and any associated fees beforehand. A local tip: crappie in this area tend to be a bit smaller on average than those found in larger reservoirs, but what they lack in size, they make up for in flavor. Don't be afraid to experiment with different jig colors to find what the fish are keying on.
