Crappie is a panfish that are found in lakes, streams, ponds, and rivers all over the country. Crappie fishing is a sport that the entire family can enjoy. All the anglers know that they can easily go down to the lake a catch a bucket full in no time as long as it's warm outside. But what about the winter months? Personally, I haven't had any luck when it comes to winter crappie fishing. Crappie tend to bite in the winter, just not as much in the same spots that they do so frequent in the summer months. You just have to know where to fish for them. Crappie tend to move to deeper water as the winter months come forward. That's good news if you have a boat. But what about the bank fisherman, the guy who stops at the lake after a hard day of work or the father checking his kids out of school to fish on the lake? Don't worry there is bound to be a spot of deep water along the bank that is a breeding ground for crappie. FIND IT!!! Don't be afraid to fish up to 30 feet if the water is deep enough!
We all know that the crappie has a favorite food which is the good old minnow. Believe me when I tell you that you can't go wrong with this choice of bait. But keep in mind that it is winter and things can get slow, but slow is good!
Fish on Fisherman.
