One View on Requiring a Salt Water License in NJ PDF Print E-mail

An interesting article appeared in the Asbury Park Press looking at the issue of requiring a salt water fishing license in NJ. It's written by Ed Cuneo, president of the New Jersey State Federation of Sportmen's Clubs. This is a fairly controversial topic with strong opinions on both sides. It's not quite as black-and-white as it seems at first, and it's worth getting informed on the more subtle issues involved, some of which are raised in the article.

Musconetcong Home Rivers Initiative Spring 2009 Update PDF Print E-mail

An update received May 26, 2009, from Brian Cowden, the Musconetcong Home Rivers Initiative Coordinator.
Re: Musconetcong Home Rivers Initiative update Spring 2009

Can you believe that year one of the Musconetcong Home Rivers Initiative is well behind us already? For me, it has been a whirlwind of activity. The Musky now has 2 fewer dams with several more dams on the chopping block. Next to be removed will likely be the Finesville Dam, the first dam upstream of the Delaware. Removing this dam may mean that American Shad will once again swim in the Musky to spawn.
