Seasonal Activity Chart
Crappie
Crappie fishing around Stoughton, Wisconsin, centers on the Yahara River and the connected lakes, particularly Lake Kegonsa and Lake Waubesa. These lakes offer the ideal habitat crappie seek: submerged timber, weed edges, and brush piles. Spring is the absolute best time, as crappie move into shallow bays to spawn. Use small jigs under a bobber or minnows to target these springtime schools. Summer can still be productive, but you'll need to fish deeper around structure. A good tip: many anglers find success using crappie nibbles on their jigs to entice bites. The DNR boat launch on Lake Kegonsa provides easy access. The crappie in these lakes are generally good-sized, with some exceeding 12 inches. Be mindful of any size or bag limits, and practice selective harvesting to maintain the fishery.
