Default Drifting for bass barnegat bay

I am fishing this week around the power plant area in forked river, was looking for any tips for drifting worms or chunking bass in that area. My bay knowledge is north or south of here, so any tips will help.

Damn sorry I just saw this! How did you make out? Most guys just drift 1/4oz-3/8oz jig heads with the whole worms. and when you get one on, let the other guys cast around as others will follow it to the boat.
But yeah I think many of these fish are moving onto the main part of the bay now.
