Early spring/ mercer County lake

Manasquan Res offers some of the best variety south of Middlesex County--large and smallmouth bass, crappie, hybrid striped bass, tiger muskies and so on. It's been a very long time since I've fished there. The park hours were always a deterrent for my father and I years ago. We wanted to be on the water before sun-up. That place did not cater to such desire or motivated fisherman lol.

There is a ~ 7$ boat fee per kayak every time you go to Manasquan. Didn't seem very well enforced, but I don't like getting in trouble either.

Its 50$ for a season pass to launch.

Just as an FYI if that impacts your decision
