Re: Monmouth county Pond for easy shore Fishing
Yes the Farm Barn! The area you fished by Leocadia stretched all the way up to Rte 36 and opened up a bit with deeper waters. There were bass up to 8#, pickerel up to 4# and carp they used to fish with cross bows up to 30#. There may have been bigger but those what were I saw caught. Live shiners were the key. If you could catch the shiners in the lake a bass or pickerel was automatic. The place was literally teaming with fish. I am sure they are still there. Never had the guts to take a raft in there. I’m not kidding, the amount of leeches in the water was staggering which I am sure fed the bass population.
I can remember the old Jack and the Preacher nursery off laurel ave but not the Farm Barn. Lol.
