Largemouth Bass
If you're targeting largemouth bass near Beverly, New Jersey, you'll want to focus your efforts on the Delaware River tributaries and surrounding ponds. This area offers a mix of shallow, weedy cover and deeper structure that bass love. Spring and fall are prime times, as the bass move into shallower water to spawn or fatten up for the winter. Look for them around lily pads and submerged vegetation in the warmer months, and near drop-offs and creek channels as the water cools. A local tip: The Rancocas Creek, accessible from several points in and around Beverly, is known for holding some nice bass. Be aware of tidal influence in the lower reaches of the creek. Also, remember that the Delaware River can get boat traffic, especially on weekends, so plan accordingly.
