Largemouth Bass
Woodlynne, NJ, offers some decent largemouth bass fishing opportunities in its local ponds and connected waterways. The Cooper River, while tidal, also holds bass in its freshwater sections and backwaters. Focus on areas with submerged vegetation, fallen trees, and docks. Spring is the peak season, as the bass move shallow to spawn. Spinnerbaits, crankbaits, and soft plastics are all effective lure choices. Summer evenings can also be productive, especially around dusk. A local trick is to target the areas where smaller creeks and streams flow into the Cooper River; these often provide ambush points for bass. Public access to some areas can be limited, so scout out potential fishing spots beforehand. The bass population is generally healthy, with fish ranging from 1 to 4 pounds being common. Don't overlook the smaller ponds and lakes within a short drive of Woodlynne; these can often hold surprisingly good bass fishing.
