Crappie
Crappie fishing around Reedsville, West Virginia, can be quite rewarding, especially in the numerous small lakes and reservoirs dotting the landscape. Cheat Lake is a popular choice, offering plenty of submerged structure and brush piles that crappie love. Spring is the absolute best time, as crappie move into the shallows to spawn. Look for them near docks, fallen trees, and weed beds. Small jigs and minnows fished under a bobber are classic crappie presentations. As the water warms up in the summer, crappie tend to move deeper, so adjust your tactics accordingly. Many of the smaller lakes have boat rentals available, but bank fishing can also be productive in certain areas. The crappie in these waters are known to school tightly, so once you find one, you're likely to find more. Check the local fishing reports for the most up-to-date information on water levels and crappie activity.
