Union Lake is a reservoir in New Jersey, near Cumberland County.
Union Lake is broad South Jersey fishing water at Millville, with bass and crappie as useful first targets. It is large enough for a full day but has accessible fishing water close to the launch. A smaller section fished carefully can be more rewarding than an immediate run across the lake.
Try a jig or worm around shoreline cover for bass. White crappie are worth a dedicated light-tackle session, changing depth around cover until you find the fish. A small moving lure lets you check an edge before slowing down. Keep the presentation manageable when wind makes boat control difficult.
Use the Union Lake Wildlife Management Area boat access. The lake has a ten-horsepower restriction, and the WMA ramp requires a qualifying current license or Boat Ramp Maintenance Permit. Check the current rules for attached larger motors before bringing a boat set up for unrestricted water.
Paddling and shoreline wildlife watching are good additions to a fishing visit. This is not the same setting as a drive-in campground with every facility beside the ramp. Choose a launch and return route that work with your boat's power and the day's wind.
