Crappie
If you're chasing crappie near Mequon, Wisconsin, focus your efforts on the area's smaller lakes and ponds, as well as backwater areas of the Milwaukee River. These quieter waters provide the ideal habitat for crappie to thrive. Spring, particularly during the spawn (late April to mid-May), is the most productive time. Look for crappie congregating near submerged vegetation, brush piles, and docks in shallow bays. Early morning and late evening are often the best times to fish. A simple jig and bobber setup is very effective. For those fishing the Milwaukee River backwaters, be mindful of current and potential snags. The crappie in this area are generally good-sized, with some reaching over 12 inches. Remember to check local regulations regarding size and bag limits, as they can vary from lake to lake.
