Redfin Pickerel
The Charlotte area offers surprisingly good Redfin Pickerel fishing in its many creeks and small rivers. These fish are ambush predators, favoring areas with dense vegetation and slow currents. Try fishing the Catawba River tributaries or smaller creeks in the Uwharrie National Forest. Spring and fall are the peak seasons, as the water temperatures are ideal for their activity. Focus on areas with fallen trees, overhanging branches, and weed beds. Small crankbaits, spinnerbaits, and even live minnows can be effective. A local tip: access can be tricky, so research public access points or consider using a kayak to reach secluded areas. The Redfin Pickerel population here is generally healthy, with fish averaging 10-14 inches.
