🐟 Fish Species

Species Population Best technique
Lepomis macrochirus
Good Worms, crickets, small spinners near docks and weeds
Lepomis cyanellus
Good Small spinners, inline buzzbaits, tiny poppers, worms under a bobber, and small jigs. Will hit nearly any lure presented in the right size.
Micropterus salmoides
Good Plastic worms, crankbaits, topwater frogs near lily pads
Perca flavescens
Good Small jigs tipped with minnow or waxworm, small spinners, ice fishing with teardrops and waxworms

Small -- usually caught incidentally in bass/pike habitat
Fair Small spinners, jigs, and live bait. Rarely targeted deliberately but caught incidentally in weedy bass habitat.
Ameiurus natalis
Fair Bottom fishing at dusk and night with nightcrawlers or worms. Light tackle is ideal -- yellow bullhead fight well for their size.
