Crappie
Crappie fishing near Steilacoom can be rewarding in some of the quieter lakes and sloughs. While not as widely publicized as other species, crappie can be found in good numbers with some focused effort. Spring, during the pre-spawn and spawn, is undoubtedly the best time to target crappie. Look for them around submerged structure like fallen trees, docks, and weed beds in relatively shallow water. Small jigs and minnows are highly effective. A practical tip: use a bobber to suspend your bait at the desired depth. Many of these locations have limited access, so scouting beforehand is recommended. The crappie in these waters can be somewhat finicky, so experimenting with different colors and presentations is key.
