Anyone in NJ use the Bass Hunter or the Bass Raider style boats in and around NJ? I'm looking to drop into some local waters I78 general area and north, any suggestions or pointers? I know if I'm using an electric motor I need it to be registered for Spruce Run, any have issues registering with the DMV I may want to be aware of? Much appreciated, thanks in advance.

Hello everyone, I was hoping some of the guys or women, can give me some pointers on my content on YouTube. I'm looking to create content that freshwater anglers like to watch and want to know what I could do better. My channel is 'Joe Reels'. I just started this Chanel about a week and a half ago so I'm still a bit green when it comes to editing. But if you do happen to watch leave a comment on the video or in this discussion on what I'm doing wrong, what I'm doing right, and what I should do. Thanks in advance, I do appreciate anyone who takes the time to watch it and gives any advice.

Got out in this unseasonably warm weather and did pretty well on the water once I found the fish. Slammed the pickerel and hooked into a nice 5lb Bass, All on jerkbaits and Jigs.

Had a great time fishing with Mike's Guide Service and fishing with PowerTeam Lures this past weekend for my Dad's birthday! Here's a few pics from the trip... 
 Day 1...gotta hit up a little breakfast at Marsha's Sugarhollow Diner on the way up! 
 Dad's ready for a little fishing! 
 We arrive at Mike's place, and given the massive flooding rain on Friday, opt to fish the lake on his property for largemouths! 
 You know there's been a lot of rain when the dock is underwater... 
 Dad with his first of many that day! 
 Yeah another...note the Ronnie smirk developing as he beats on the fish! 
 Oh look, another! 
 RonnieSenko strikes again!!! 
 Wacky worming!!! 
 Ah just another largemouth! 
 Still catching! 
 Wacky Ronnie and his wacky worm strike again! 
 Brokeback bassin...ouch! I was tossing bigger baits with Mike trying to land a big girl when I landed this guy with a little bit of a curve to his backbone! Ouch! 
 Meanwhile...RonnieSenko gets another! 
 Mike, despite wearing 7 sweatshirts amidst a cold front, is tossing topwater and enticing some strikes! Get em!!! 
 Ronnie back on with another one! 
 Even some crappie...the weather might be crappie, but the fishing on the lake was lots of fun! 
 Nice shot of Dad and I, he's loving it! 
 We're seeing a pattern here... 
 Almost identical shot with a different fish and a different background! 
 OK Day 2, and we try to give the river a go by fishing on the of the local tributaries in hopes that the water will be a little clearer. As you can see, we're slipping into a river raging with coffee colored water. The river rose 11 FEET on Friday and into Saturday...wow! 
 Mike and Dad, ready to rock! 
 Let's go...here we come Susquecoffee River! 
 Couple more shots of the muddy mess! 
 Oh just slightly flooded... 
 Another cold and dreary weekend day...it's mid May and morning temps were in the low 40s 
 
 
 
 Ronnie bundled up! 
 Multi-sweatshirt Mike is ready to tear it up and give some new lures a try! 
 Here's we're heading into the tributary...obvious break in water coloration! 
 Transition edge... 
 We're going THAT way! 
 Nice view down river! 
 The smallies liked the NEW PowerTeam Lures natural color! Still trying to swim away with it on the boat! 
 OK he calmed down for a shot! 
 Dad's into the smallies too! 
 Then I landed this guy, apparently he found a tattoo artist... 
 Cool shot showing off his ink! 
 So I catch this stickfish, one of many resting on the bottom of this river after the storms and this little guy is attached to it. I never saw a leech spread out wide like that to conform to the contour of a tree branch...cool! 
 The underside... 
 Dad and I on the river with the a nice one he landed! 
 And dad with another nice one, the big one on the day! 
 I had to jump in a picture with him, nice fish Dad! 
 And a final exit photo, looking upstream on the tributary! Next time I hope the weathermen predict awesome weather with no rain and warmer temps! As always Mike put in a ton of effort and got us on the fish despite the incredibly adverse river conditions!
