Default Fished Lake Hopatcong for the first time 7/7/15

A good friend of mine that has a boat took me fishing last night. We were targeting bass. Live lined herring, and used Rapalas a little bit for fun. We both caught one decent sized crappie at Sharp Rock.

Also hit Pickeral Point, and had no bites. Water was choppy here. To end the night we went over by Chestnut Point. The water was calm and fish were hitting the surface, but we got not bites. Tried throwing on a jitterbug and a hula popper to no avail.

Who here would be kind enough to give tips for catching bass with baitfish? One of my goals is to catch a hybrid bass. But I would be happy to catch largemouth and smallmouth that put up a good fight too.
