Opinions?

I have been fishing the passaic river for about 2 weeks now and put the boat in at elmwood park marina. I have been destroying the smallmouth too with some nice big ones. Right before the dark I catch most of my big ones right by the weed lines but this guys has been racking all the weeds out. Do you guys think that's bad for the fish since the big fish would breed in weeds the babies would hide to live and get big and some big fish would even eat the little fish to get bigger, would this ruin the patterns of breeding or eating?
