Fish and Useful Baits at Pine Lake

Fish reported from Pine Lake (Bergen County, east of Bogert Pond) include black crappie, bluegill, chain pickerel, channel catfish, largemouth bass, and yellow perch.

Crappie, Perch and Sunfish

Crappie at Pine Lake (Bergen County, east of Bogert Pond) respond to a small jig or live minnow beside brush and suspended cover.

A Simple Fishing Plan for Pine Lake

Use a moving lure to locate the first active stretch, then slow down on the exact cover that produced a bite on Pine Lake (Bergen County, east of Bogert Pond). Then compare the incoming-water end of Pine Lake (Bergen County, east of Bogert Pond) with the dam side and any point that reaches the old channel.

When to Fish Pine Lake

Spring at Pine Lake (Bergen County, east of Bogert Pond) favors warming coves, feeder mouths and protected spawning banks. Once summer heat settles over Pine Lake (Bergen County, east of Bogert Pond), work the deepest active cover instead of assuming every fish has moved to the bottom.
