Clear overhead with good moonlight, with dead-still conditions with the glass on the way up. Fish at Omary Lake should hold close to inflow corners and shaded margins. The productive run goes night into morning. Start on the obvious water and expand from there. Cooling water has fish active and on the move.

In New Jersey, Omary Lake falls inside Gloucester County. Around the bank it is mixed woodland. You can fish the entire water from one spot if you pick it well. Most waters listed here for Gloucester County are larger. Richwood sits 3.1 miles from the bank. The nearest city of size is Philadelphia, 19 miles away. This one sits near enough to a boundary to be worth checking.
Depth is not on record here, which means reading the ground instead. A natural lake fishes on cover, and cover here means weed and timber. On a natural lake the weed line and the shelf beyond it do the work. County-wide records name bluegill, pumpkinseed, redbreast sunfish, largemouth bass and brown bullhead. At least one recorded species is protected in parts of its range; read the local rules before targeting anything. Work Omary Lake in sections rather than trying to cover it.
Typical July readings run about 76°F; by January the average is down near 32°F. Conditions shift steadily rather than sharply. In milder years the edges alone go, and the middle never sets. March through May is the strongest run, with October and November a second stretch. Expect Omary Lake to follow that timing.
No access rule appears in what we hold. There is no recorded infrastructure here; expect to find your own way in. A small crankbait along the drop and a worm in the thick stuff cover the bass. Season dates differ by species, so read the table. Where the way in crosses private ground, ask first. Ewan Lake at 0.7 miles is the sensible second choice. Nothing here settles the position at Omary Lake for certain.
