Crappie
Crappie fishing around Ronceverte offers a delightful angling experience, especially in the slower-moving sections of the Greenbrier River and its tributaries. Springtime is prime crappie season here, as the fish move into shallower waters to spawn. Look for them near submerged brush piles, fallen trees, and weed beds. Small jigs and minnows are the go-to baits. A local hotspot is the area around the confluence of the Greenbrier and the New River, a short drive from Ronceverte. Bank fishing access is available at several points along the Greenbrier River Trail, providing easy access to promising crappie habitat. The crappie in this region tend to school tightly, so once you find one, you're likely to find more. Don't be afraid to experiment with different jig colors and depths to find what they're biting on that day. Also, be aware of water levels, as heavy rains can quickly make the river unfishable.
