Rock Outcrop
Left of the dam, ~200 yrds, just past small pond on the right, there's a rock outcrop to the right. Lots of vegitation, so we pulled in lots of weeds also.Added by: kakready

Pompton Lakes Bass
Big lake, Ramapo river runs into it and you can get your boat into the river a good mile where it turns into a smaller pond before you can't go any further with your boat. Lots of structure to fish. Nice Bass, trout,Pike, Perch. Did a night fishing trip here once and got a 6 lb catfish. Night fishin is tough on us old folks..Added by: themightybones
