Everybody probably has a different opinion, we target different fish, and have different passions. But this is usually how I fish.

Feb- Start crappie fishing mid to late Feb depending on weather
Mar thru April - crappie fish pre spawn and spawn
May thru June - bluegill/redear
July thru Aug - catfish spawn, crappie fish at night with lights, bass fish at night.
Sep thru Nov - crappie, best time of the year for a pan fisherman
Dec - sauger
