Hi all. I'm brand new to this awesome site.

I'd like to take my daughter fishing tomorrow (Sun 4/24). We live in Harmony Township, Warren County. I'm hoping to fish for my favorite pan fish species, including crappie, yellow perch, while even jumbo sunfish are always a treat to see.

Any local recommendations as to where we may catch crappie and yellow perch please?
Additionally, are the crappie favoring live shiner bait, night crawlers, a particular lure?

Thanks very much in advance for reading the post.

Worms work great, small minnows if you have a bucket to keep them alive

Nightcrawlers work best for panfish, get two containers worth and enjoy the water & nature. Good luck

Hello my name is Bill. I wish I would have signed up sooner.But I know this is a little late since you wanted the info for the weekend. But delaware lake in columbia is great for crappies and giant bluegills. Lots of shoreline access. Little jigs and trout magnets fished below a float work great. I call it PS the panfish system
Enjoy
