Crappie
If you're after crappie near Vidor, Texas, the freshwater lakes, rivers, and bayous surrounding the Neches River are your best bet. Look to areas like Sam Rayburn Reservoir (a bit of a drive, but worth it) or smaller local lakes closer to Vidor. Spring is the prime time, as crappie move into shallow waters to spawn. Target them around submerged brush piles, standing timber, and boat docks. Minnows and jigs are the go-to baits. A local tip: Many of the smaller lakes have limited boat access, so a kayak or small boat can be advantageous. Also, be aware that the water clarity in this area can vary greatly depending on rainfall, so adjust your lure colors accordingly. The crappie in this region are known for their good size, and a stringer full of slabs is definitely attainable with the right approach.
