Awesome, your son is out fishing me! Lol

Good to know, I'm gonna try to get out Friday

A fish is a fish man, it can only get better from here!

Went went back there and it looked VERY promising. Unfortunately we couldnt get anything to bite anything! So after 6 hours of cranks, jerks, live bait and soft plastics, we finally hooked in to some pickerel by the boat dock where we started. The water was very muddy, the air and water were freezing, and the wind made the main lake drop offs unfishable for a rowboat cause of the rough water. Definitely needs to warm up a bit there!

Thanks a lot guys, I'll definitely give that all a try! Also with this rain we've been having, I'm thinking worms could work?

Awesome, where in jersey were you?

I'm gonna get out to Hopatcong on Friday with a friend. We're gonna rent a rowboat at a place in the Great Cove. I've fished this lake before with more failure than success. Anybody have any good tips or better locations to fish on the lake? Also if anyone's fished it recently, what's the water temps like? Any help would be appreciated!

Yea I threw pretty much everything I had and everything we caught was within 8-10 ft off the shore

Thanks guys, nice to meet you all

Hey all, north jersey here, Essex county

Just wanted to touch base with guys in the north jersey area. Caught my first couple of bass (1 3-4 pounder) and some pickerel on Texas rigged 4 in worms from the shore. My buddy caught 1 bass on a panther Martin while going for trout. Anybody else around here having any success and on what? Also I would love to post some pics but I'm working off an iPad and the pics are too big, anybody know of a way to resize them?

Hey all, new guy here from north jersey, looking forward to talking to all of you to learn and share some good stuff.
