Our boat was out of commission due to a engine fuel leak so we decided to do some more "Urban" fishing again today on North Hudson Lake, in North Bergen, NJ.

This is a small body of water in a heavily populated area of NJ that has both hatchery raised Trout, and resident Largemouth Bass. You should know that this lake gets lots of fishing activity which means the fish are pressured hard so be prepared to modify your bait presentations to get a reaction bite.

We tried several different lures (metal) and tackle combinations on this trip to see what worked the best. And after a number of casts we learned that light spinning gear and small light weight 1/8 oz and 1/4 oz gold metal lures was the best combination to use on this body of water today.

We also tried a couple of the new lures we received, one is called the STEEL SHAD, and the other was TOM's TAZ LURE to see if we could get a reaction bite on either of these lures.

We DID see Trout following them and despite modifying the presentation speed we could not get a strike. We determined that fishing from shore was limiting the lures effectiveness, and the hatchery trout were too small and unaccustomed to a food source of this type. We will definately be using both again on an upcoming trip using our boats so check back often, or sign up as a Subscriber to see how we did with them.

If you want to catch some fish on this lake you will need to constantly move around it to find them. This method is necessary if you are using a lure, or live bait for that matter, because the fish populations are always moving.
