Yes, it’s very early, but anglers are starting to catch crappies and panfish from boats and from shore.

Water temperatures continue to warm, along with the fishing bite for everything from perch, to crappies, to walleyes.

Breaking down everything you need to know to catch walleyes, perch, crappies and sunfish just after ice-out in early spring while going in-depth on fish location and movement, as well as tactics you can use
As waters warm, crappie fishing heats up across the state. Good fishing for crappies has already been reported at a number of lakes.

“Fishing at Cherry Plain has been good the last few years. People predominantly catch bass in Black River Pond.”

On Mississippi River Pool No. 4, we have an excellent yellow perch bite every spring, and you don’t need a boat to access this bite.

Bluegills and pumpkinseeds are also excellent target species here.

Ice fishing has ended in southern Michigan, but continues in the northern Lower Peninsula and Upper Peninsula.
