Still looking for some good locations for fishing I live in Ocean County NJ but I love to travel north to Lake Hopatcong and to Manasquan Res. Lots of LG Mouth Bass and both Tiger Musky and regular Musky
I can’t believe how many people are asking “where is this spot”, Are people that dumb? You don’t know what happens when a spot is posted online???? It’s ruined!
First of all, that theory is total inaccurate!!! Second, people shouldn't post anything about fishing spots, and they won't get asked where they are. Especially with a title "Hidden gem". The whole "posting online and ruining a fishing spot thing is an absolute farce anyway." I've disproven that theory times over. Public lakes are just that: "PUBLIC" they have been fished, over and over again for years and years. Posting a spot online isn't going to blow up the spot or pressure it any more than it is already being fished. Most people ask yet never follow up and actually go. Again, I've proven this time and time again by posting numerous "gem" fishing spots on my NJ bass forum and yet, within the week, zero people who asked about the spot ever showed up. Besides the fact guys live all over the state, not just where this: "hidden gem" might be. With gas and toll prices as high as they are people aren't going to travel that far to catch a few mediocre bass. We are all supposed to be brothers in a fishing community and help each other achieve our goals. Catch fish, Thats all it should be about. Not this kindergarten BS about blowing up fishing spots.. Grow the EFF up!!!
I deleted fishbrain. Used to be a great app where you could see what people caught and where but now you can’t see anything unless you pay. It’s worthless now and im not going to oay to use it. I never needed it before and dont need it now. Was cool while it was free though.
Where is this place, I live in Jersey too and I use Fishbrain too. But honestly I get it, I have a really good fishing spot too I don’t tell anyone. Matter of fact it’s for some reason not even Fishbrain which is weird. If u come at a good time of the season u r guaranteed to catch at least like 3 fish, that’s at least, I normally catch like 7
Hi brother I am a new subscriber can I have a question I was watching your video when the land owner try to make you leave was that in New Jersey what state was you in I'm only asking because I look up the rules if it is New Jersey the state owns the body of water as such as lakes ponds streams and rivers homeowner property owner only owns up to the river bank
I live rite up the road… That is VERY PRIVATE property and your lucky the ******* cops didn’t come kick you out. Whoever is looking for it… don’t waste your time. *For the “content creator” Ask permission bc MAKING TRESPASSING VIDEOS IS DUMB & this is the kind of crap that makes property owners dislike the sport. If something doesn’t belong to you it’s common sense that you need to ask permission. 🤦🏻♂️
Hey man I have a fishing channel but I don’t wanna switch to make the comment lmao. I been fishing in jersey since I’m 2 so it’s been a while I’d recommend D&R canal Raritan river Millstone river Sandy hook ( saltwater fishing ) Colonial park - they have two ponds When fishing at millstone river if it is a week after a flood there will be some massive Carp and catfish. Overall millstone has a lot of Carp but the most caught fish in the millstone is the small mouth bass. I’m in north jersey
I haven’t lived in central Jersey since the early eighties…but my dad and I caught tons of largemouth and pickerel in the Millstone River. Trout fishing was always great in Assunpink Creek, and the Stony Brook (very near Quaker Bridge Mall). If you are in the northern part of the state, you have endless trout possibilities…our favorites were the Musconetcong, the Pequest, and the Black River at Hacklebarney State Park. Come back and let us know how you do.
Fishing tiny anonymous ponds is surely great. There are big fish in small ponds. But the bottom line is, fishing in NJ sucks. There is no sustained open habitat here as in the 1000 Islands, Maine or Minnesota or so many other states. Nj fish are heavily pressured too. In the bodies of water we do have(spruce run, manasquan reservoir, and others) fish can quote the prices of the lures going past them. You even admit, it's not legal for you to be where you are. I don't roll like that, watching over my shoulder for law enforcement or property owners. I'm glad you have your secret tiny ponds but I have a bass boat and I'm headed out of state.
I feel you've been fishing for awhile but after you set the hook, just keep the rod in a more up right position, going side to side looks cool and dramatic but you can lose good catches. I see you're already up on a dock too hopefully that helps, still awesome job.
Mediocre pond at best.. I got 4 spots in central NJ that I can pull multiple 3lb+ fish a day and the occasional 6lb+ Nonetheless still a decent spot for some quick action.
@@stormedits23 if I told you I wouldn’t catch shit anymore because then you’d tell one person, that dude would tell one person.. so on and so forth until it’s like every other fished out spot in NJ
@@stormedits23 I’ll tell you one BANGER though since it’s illegal to fish but you can sneak in when it rains. Plainsboro preserve. I pulled a 7.5 out of there and my boy pulled a 7.9 multiple 4 and 5’s in between. You can park in the neighborhood behind the preserve.. walk through, cross over the train tracks and you’ll see the gate and you can get though. Pull up google maps you’ll see what I’m talking about
Because spots get burned up and people trash the place . I have a crappie heaven spot that no one ever fishes both bass and crappie but I don't share cuz people trash everything. Think about it if you find the world's hottest girl and you find out what she likes so your chances of getting her are higher than anyone else are you gonna go and share the wealth?
This is a great place to fish. Haven't been there in years. There's a real asshole who may or may not still live there who cries when you get within an earshot of his dock . Are you cedar Lakers. Idk you tell me you saw us right across launch the boat that you have been looking at every day for years
We’re proud of our dinks lol. We aren’t granted the benefit of waterways that stay warm year round, so I’m all the more grateful when I hook a 4+ pounder.
@@devinh342 it’s not that your water ways don’t stay warm year round. It’s the bodies of water. They’re dinky as well. Cayuga lake a few hours north in NY produces some of the best bass fishing in the north.
Catching crappie in NJ is exciting enough in some places, Jersey waters are over populated with algae, literally 10 years ago, I remember being able to see clearly in the water.
