So I live on a lake in CT, small, private, not stocked. (I'm 16 live w/ parents)

But i haven't fished in like 5 years except the last 3 days, the lake isn't that big, average size CT lake. I've been using a phoebe and been getting small (like 1-2 pound LMB) and a few pickeral.... What should I use for my lake? To catch the big bass? There are like 6-7 pounders in there...

Where should I fish? Near the shore or in the middle?

Pics of lake:

thanks!

I was there! Caught my first bass ever near the shore!

If you want to catch those 6-7 pounders, try using a swimbait. They come in various sizes and shapes from hard plastic to soft. go to www.***.com they have a huge selection of them. if your lake has perch and sunfish or golden shiners, you want to match the size and color swimbaits to what the bass eat. Good luck
