Finally got one ! Jumped as soon as I hooked 'em, only 15"er.
Tried Bridgewater and South Bound Brook also, found no love. As usual not another angler in sight.
What are these huge cream colored bugs coming off the water, I see them a lot up in N.Y.

I assume you are wading so the bottom is suitable. I can’t imagine it will stay this way.

No pics? Big smallies are always photo worthy

Mayflies - when they hatch in large numbers the bass love them
