Green Sunfish
Charlotte's a great place to introduce kids to fishing, and the humble green sunfish is the perfect target. These panfish thrive in nearly every pond, creek, and slow-moving section of the Catawba River and its tributaries around the city. Spring and early summer are prime times, as they move into shallow water to spawn. Look for them around docks, submerged logs, and weed beds. A simple bobber rig with a worm or cricket is all you need. For easy access, try the ponds at local parks like Freedom Park or McAlpine Creek Park. Be aware that some smaller ponds can get choked with vegetation in the heat of summer, so early morning or late afternoon trips are best. Green sunfish aren't picky eaters, but they are wary of unnatural presentations, so use light line and small hooks. While they're not huge (most are under 8 inches), their feisty attitude makes them fun to catch, and they are abundant enough to provide consistent action.
