I'm going to get out on Monday with my Kilroy and deciding which one to fish. I've fished Assunpink a fair bit, but never been to Rainbow. I'm ten minutes from Rainbow. Good fish coming out of there. Last weeks open on Sunday had 3 13lb+bags. Cedarville Chunk from today.... DT-4 crank 2 Quote

kschultz76 Posted April 13, 2017 Posted April 13, 2017 Picked up seven bass on Monday at Rainbow, and two pickerel. 5 of the bass were 2 lbs or better each and chunky. Two were dinks. Here's the best for the day. 2 Quote
wet_dream Posted April 17, 2017 Posted April 17, 2017 Hey guys, New to the forums. I'm from Atlantic County and have been doing some pond hopping in the area the last couple weeks. Here's my personal best in my young freshwater career lol. Caught on a bitsy bug jig w/ a havoc pit boss jr. I've been throwing the jig exclusively, trying to concentrate on learning one lure at a time. Hopefully, I can fish with some of you guys sometime. My PB on a Jig 1 Quote
fish devil Posted April 23, 2017 Posted April 23, 2017 Hit Parvin again today. Caught five after getting six yesterday.Nothing big. Best went just over 16". Water temps dropped about 5 degress from yesterday. These fish hit really hard. Wacky rig Senkos. Nailed a chunk pickerel too. 1 Quote
fish devil Posted May 18, 2017 Posted May 18, 2017 Took the day off and decided to fish Rainbow this morning around 6:30AM. It was tough finding fish at first. Nothing on beds. Finally locked in on an area full of lilly pads. A wacky rigged 5" senko was all I needed. Pulled out 8 largies and probably had another half dozen strikes without a hookup. Best at 3lbs. Most in the 2-2 1/2lb range. 4 Quote
fish devil Posted May 21, 2017 Posted May 21, 2017 Hit Cedarville this morning. Caught some pickerel, yellow perch and 14 largies. Many of the bass went in the 1 1/2 -2lb range. They all fought hard and most jumped out of the water. Lost a solid fish on a jump. A 5" wacky rigged Senko was the producer. I worked the jig hard around pads and wood but could not get a bite. No action on topwater either. Quote
fish devil Posted May 29, 2017 Posted May 29, 2017 Hit Rainbow yesterday. Had poor results, mostly small non-keeper bass on a wacky rig. Today I hit Cedarville. Bite was slow but I had four small keeper bass on the wacky rig. Lost a 3lber on a jump. No biggie, it happens. About an hour later I hooked into a slob, about ten feet from shore. This thing took a wild jump about 6 feet from me and of course shot the hook out. Would have been my best at this lake. An easy 6-7lb largie. I battled on. Got another big strike on the wacky rig, This time it was a solid channel cat 5-6lbs. I also caught a handful of yellow perch and pickerel. 2 Quote
kschultz76 Posted June 14, 2017 Posted June 14, 2017 Anyone been out on Manasquan Res, Lake Mercer, Assunpink, or Union lately? Heading out both Thursday and Friday. I expect a tough bite but if one these has been any good recently it would help me make my decision. Quote
Cargojon Posted June 15, 2017 Posted June 15, 2017 Anybody have any suggestions on where I can take my son in/around the Pine Barrens region for some bass? Getting tired of catfish, the occasional pickerel, and the (all too common and also disgusting) eels. We'd be shore fishing... We have a lake front campsite at our place but the lake is only a lake from April - November, then they drain it and it turns into a large stream....so the native fish population isn't what it could be.

fish devil Posted June 17, 2017 Posted June 17, 2017 Hit the Pink this morning. Very tough bite. Caught one keeper on a wacky rig Senko. Had a handful of shorts and one pickerel. Hopefully tomorrow's SJ Hawg Hunters club tourney goes a little better. 1 Quote

fish devil Posted June 19, 2017 Posted June 19, 2017 The club had pretty good results at Assunpink. Only 8 teams participated on a foggy, wet morning. This was a 6 fish limit, 15" minimum. Winner had 3 for 9+lbs. Top 3 had 9+. We finished 3rd. I caught all four of my teams fish. Power fishing a wacky Senko with an 1/8 oz weight. All fish hit on the drop. I was focused on getting as many casts as possible. Swim jigs and shakey heads were also used by teams. I will post full results and pics when I get them. 1 Quote

fish devil Posted August 6, 2017 Posted August 6, 2017 No tourney this weekend so I hit a local pond mid Saturday morning after a front passed through. I only fished for 3 hrs because of the strong wind. Had three hits, all on a 5"wacky Senkos. One was a solid near 5lb chain pickerel and 3+lb largie. 1 Quote

Junger Posted April 20, 2018 Posted April 20, 2018 Hi all, my mother in law lives in Mt. Laurel, she's right off Union Mill Road and Hartford Road. There's a little pond there, I've caught bluegills with my kids, nothing else though. Anyone know if has bass in there? https://goo.gl/maps/qHNwCEU1JcB2 Quote
