Crappie
If you're heading to Talco, Texas, with crappie on your mind, you're likely targeting Lake Bob Sandlin. This lake is renowned for its abundant crappie population, thanks to the submerged timber and standing structure that provides excellent habitat. Spring is prime time, as crappie move into the shallows to spawn. Focus your efforts around brush piles and submerged trees in water depths of 5-10 feet. Minnows and jigs are the go-to baits. During the summer months, you'll find crappie holding deeper, near the thermocline. Try fishing around bridge pilings and deeper submerged structure. A local tip: the FM 21 bridge area is a popular and productive spot. Be aware that boat traffic can be heavy, especially on weekends, so plan accordingly. Lake Bob Sandlin crappie are known for their good size, offering anglers a rewarding experience.
