    Hey... So recently I just got in to fishing!!!! Found out fishing is an awesome hobby and I'm enjoying it!!! Unfortunately, I just moved from FL and I'm ...more here in Central Jersey... I'm used to saltwater fishing... But now I'm never near a beach! What is the best bait I should use for ponds,lakes, and/or rivers... And what kind of fish would I catch?! P.s I'm near the raritan bay...

      a great place to go to learn how to fish them. Anyway, hope this helps!

      like bass. You'll probably catch largemouth bass, bluegill, sunnies and maybe some crappie. If you want artificial lures start out with in-expensive crank baits ...more and worm-type soft plastics. YouTube is

      I'm from Delaware and the Jersey pond fishing is just like Delaware's. Since you're fairly new, I'd start out with the bobber idea. Use live worms ...more for smaller fish and live minnows for bigger fish

      ...catch everything. Ive caught bluegill, carp, bass, catfish, striper, white bass, EVERYTHING. They are like $2.50 a piece

      The best lure that has ever been made is a white roostertail. Just about anywhere that sells fishing gear will sell them. Super simple, just cast and reel. They ...more do get hung up pretty easy but they....

      What are you interested going for? Is there a certain specie you are after? If I'm sure I can lend some help.

      Live bait works the best. Worms are good for panfish (bluegill, crappie, etc). And I would use small bait fish for bigger predator fish like bass, walleye, catfish.

      Another thing to do would be to find a local pond, put a worm about two feet below a bobber with a small splitshot weight, and then find out the food chain and move ...more up haha @MissMarj

      And crankbaits. Hopefully that helps some.

      In the winter I like to use jigs. In the spring and I like to use spinnerbaits, BuzzBaits, and lipless Crankbaits. In the summer I use Texas or Carolina rigged plastics. ...more And fall I use spinnerbaits

      My favorite freshwater species to target is the Largemouth Bass. The lure you use depends on the time of the year and the weather/temperature.
