Three lure choices

[Munkin]

Looks like you are looking for 3 techniques not specific lures. 

 

Topwater start with a popper. 

 

Moving baits, spinnerbait and a square bill crankbait.

 

Bottom baits try a 4 to 6 inch worm or creature baits. 

 

I will leave specific brand recommendations to others but chartreuse black back crankbait, white or white/chartreuse spinnerbait,  and  green pumpkin for plastics. Overall these are the top producer's for me in about 30 years of bass fishing.

You are going to be limited in what you can use. All the bodies of water you mention are shallow and getting really weedy/grassy...Newton is the best for quality bass but it gets pounded regularly by club tournaments. Hammonton use to be good way back. Septic overflow from surrounding houses caused major issues.....the lake was drained and cleaned up. The existing bass population is weak, lots of small fish. Oak has small bass, same thing with Maple which I fished for many years.

 

Buzzbaits and other topwater lures early morning can be very good for catching bigger fish. Throw it when its choppy too.  Chatterbaits and lipless cranks are really productive when the bite is on.  Soft plastics rule here in South Jersey during Summer months when most bodies of water are grassing up. A wacky or texas rigged Senko is a great choice.The Dropshot is also productive.

 

Make sure you try Bargaintown Lake in Egg Harbor Township(Atlantic County). Its loaded with stumps/wood. Plenty of big bass for you. Wacky rig Senkos!!!!!!

Thanks for the local insight. Any other areas around the Egg Harbor City area you're keen on?
