A bill introduced in Congress would require managers of national forests and wilderness areas to open up waters for fishing. See http://www.examiner.com/article/legislation-introduced-to-open-federal-land-to-fishing-hunting-and-shooting

What water bodies would this open up for us in NJ?

None come to mind for me. All the closed ones are privately owned that I can think of.

Not a lot in the way of federal lands in NJ that may or may not have fishable waters. Great Swamp NWR, Delaware Water Gap NRA, Walkill River NWR, Fredrick Forsyth NWR, Cape May/Supawna Meadows NWRs come to mind
