Crappie
Crappie enthusiasts visiting Mount Pleasant can find some decent fishing opportunities in the smaller lakes and ponds surrounding the area. While Lake Michigan isn't known for its crappie population, several inland waters offer suitable habitat. Look for crappies near submerged structure, weed beds, and docks. Spring, particularly during the pre-spawn and spawn, is the most productive time. Focus on shallow bays with warmer water. A local tactic involves fishing near the numerous canals and drainage ditches that connect to the Root River system; these areas often hold crappies seeking refuge and food. Be aware of private property boundaries and obtain permission before fishing on private land. Light jigs tipped with minnows or plastics are a reliable choice. Also, consider using a bobber to suspend your bait at the desired depth. While the crappie population may not be as large as in some of the more well-known crappie destinations in Wisconsin, the relatively smaller size of these waters can make for a more intimate and productive fishing experience.
