John:
I went fresh water fishing in a lake/resouver in Northern NJ and there was a spill way running under the road. I use to fish there all the time but could only catch crappies and carp but still fun. Well one morning went there and small mouth bass were running in schools from one end of the spill way to the other side of the lake. I had nothing but some purple gummy bear type worms with the squiggley tail. So I threw that on a hook and ended up catching 4 small mouth bass from 3 to 5 pounds. Wow what a morning that was!! I actually had to throw some back because of the limit on the number you could take. So give those worms a shot, you never know.
