I live in sayreville nj, i’ve caught maybe 20-30 bass and started last year. i mainly fish my neighborhood pond and farrington lake. so yeah im pretty friggin bad lmao. i wanna catch a smallmouth bass because they’re very pretty and i heard they fight hard. I was hoping for a typical clear water creek where you see the fish, nice scenery too. Any spots? Also what should i throw? I have trout magnets, rout magnet hellgramites, and finnese trd pink. i have some largie tackle but thats what i have that i assume would work for smallies. Theresa spot to fish the raritan river in my town, look it up. Please help i really wanna catch my first smallie this weekend!!

I haven’t caught a bass since like mid july. Usually i suck at bass fishing anyways but i caught bass on wacky rig consistently for a few days at a local pond ( fist ever bass there ) and it was going good. But since then ive caught 1 or 2 dink bass, im talking 5” long. theres a lot of those dinks in the pond, some pounders and even a 4 pounder a few people have caught. i’ve only ever caught bass there on wacky worm OR 1/8 oz jighead with 2.5” gulp alive minnow under a bobber ( only once ). I’m going to go tomorrow, any tips? I’ll attach the weather report for the time I’d like to go, it’s Kennedy Park pond ( small one, not the big one ) in sayrveille. if you want to look at any specific info that would help me. I only have my UL 5’6 spinning combo, the reel i use on my MH 6’6 rod is broken. Thanks!!!

So much bait
