Bass Boat Blue

Planning to go to a party boat at Atlantic Heights NJ this weekend with a large group of friends. We plan to rent all the rods we needed, and use the bait/lure that party boat provided. None of us have any real fishing experience/knowledge/skill.

I went to Black Sea Bass/bottom fishing a few time. If the party boat found a good spot, everyone seems to get at least some fish to bring home with (at least a progy or so). Bottom fish for Black sea bass/porgy were easy and skillness, but just need some luck.

Black sea bass season is closed in NJ. We plan to go for Striped Bass. I wonder if Striped Bass requires a lot of skills or it will be just as easy as catching black sea bass/porgy? Will everyone on the party boat usually get something (if it was a good day.)

Any information is welcome.

No skill is needed. What is needed though, is a skipper that knows what he's doing and where he's going. It helps a lot also if the deck hands know what they're doing, too.

This is the first in a series of instructional videos by Blue Water LED to help our customers perform installations on their own boats. This video ...

I'm going to the Chesapeake Bay next week to go fishing. I fish from the shore (as I don't own a boat or anything) and instead of sticking with the same old perch, spot fish, sting rays, and small rock fish and blue fish, I'd like to try for the big ones.

It's suppose to rain though.. Will that effect my fishing, especially since I'm on the shore (regardless of me fishing during high tide)?
Any tips?

Thank you!

Rain doesn't effect it too much. These predatory fish know that when it rains, prey moves around. You will have just as much luck when it rains. These fish are used to it. Good luck.

Is it a $300,000 blue water boat, an inflatable boat, or something in between. Mine is a 14' jon boat with 15hp Johnson outboard and a Minn Kota bow mount trolling motor. I have caught so many bass from this rig in area lakes and ponds. It's as close to perfect as I could wish for.

I have a tweener boat. 17 foot bass tracker. I can hit lake michigan if I keep it close enough to shore that I can motor to the breakwall if the weather changes, I can fish all lakes, and I can fish most rivers.

It has almost enough room for all my gear (do they ever hold them all). I do want a bigger boat to go miles out on lake michigan and a 10 foot jon for little streams to piddle around in.

The tweener fits most all of my needs. Perfect for Canada too.

1) A pond that is 1'-4' deep it is only about 1 or 2 acres. I have tried almost all lures and worms and have only caught one bass with a Top-Diving lure that is silver with a light blue on it's top and part of it's head. I have tried shiners but once again no luck, and I know that there are bass in there.

2) A 2,534 acre lake, once again I have tried almost everything and I have caught only one bass with a dead shiner that I was reeling in, the bass came and took it. The fishing areas(That are on land, I don't have a boat) range from being 5'-(around) 8'.

Extra Info) Both bass where about 3 or 4 lbs and where 12-14" in length (I did not get exact information) And both areas are pretty weedy.

Try night fishing it with a topwater lure like a black jitterbug, or a popper like a Heddon Pop N image. Cast it out reel your slack ,let it sit for 5 to 10 seconds move it a little bit let it sit 5 seconds or so and repeat . Keep your line tight , when you hear a splash set the hook.

It sounds like your fishing for pressured bass , which means they get fished for during the day a lot . If there are bass there they will feed at night , especially any big ones , dont use a light if you can help it and definately dont shine the light on the water.

Try that on both lakes and see what happens I have had great sucess at night time but use bug spray before ya go out the skeeters can get bad.

Shiners should work great in the day ? I fish them 3 feet or so under a bobber cast them out and let them swim around (Keep them lively dont let them die in your bait bucket ). If you dont get a bite in 15 minutes in one spot with a shiner move to another . Fish them near the outside edge of weed beds or where there is deeper water near by.
