Tough call here... Merrill? RVR? Clark Reservoir?

I'm gonna have to go with Clark only b/c I fish it the most and she's always giving!

Gotta go with LH- whether fished from kayak or shoreline you are bound to hook something. I definitely plan to explore more parts of it before the summer lunatics make it too dangerous in a kayak.

Any lake that is electric motors only, I like peace and quiet.

Peace and quiet for me too,…….wading RVR’s eastern shore fall / winter. Yesterday, caught a 20” brown (skinny, but not painfully, so), there.

End of Nov. 2011 caught & released my biggest LMB, ever @ 24". Quite the surprise,......it came completely out of the water to pounce on the Yo Zuri right in front of me!

Round Valley when its not crowded. Fishing summer mornings when the lake is completely still is my favorite time to go.

My favorite lake is, and always will be, Alden Lake in PA. Way back in 1985, I caught my first fish from there. Some of my best fishing memories took place on that lake.

I haven't been there in years. I miss it.

For me, the shallow ponds, not really lakes, are my favorites. Assumpink is a go to pond for numbers, quantity over quality, but quality exists...pick your day and lure

LOVE to fish Farrington...the pads there offer so many possibilities from pan fish to pike...caught them all there...twitching the pads with a jerk bait in early spring or late fall is a certain strike. PB LMB in NJ from Farrington @ 8 LBS on my scales in the boat and released!

OK, I have said it and stick by it, Spruce Run...When this pond(lake) is way down in late summer/early fall the fishing for me has been awesome. Have topped the scales here @ 6.5 lbs for a LMB and 3.9 lbs for a SMB. Not the PB, but very close and keeps me coming back

Lastly, need to fish MC, RV, and a host of others to make my absolute decision; however, based on my limited experience: FARRINGTON IT IS!

I'm willing to bet most people aren't posting there actual "favorite" lake because I know I'm not for sure and that nothing against anybody on here. Unfortunately this lake is too small and if were to get any more pressure than it already has it would probably turn into what ever other lake in Bergen County already is (essentially dead). As far as bigger water is concerned outside of private lakes and what not I'd have to go with Lake Hopatcong. The place just holds such a great variety of fish with some monsters lurking in there.
