2 trout fishing videos from NJ:

The first video is a bunch of young adults using live bait in the Clairmont TCA which is artificial lures only. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JwvZ...ature=youtu.be

The 2nd video is quite interesting also.

Re: 2 trout fishing videos from NJ:

where'd you find these videos...trout s&m website? well at least i'm sure the second one is a private area obviously.

Re: 2 trout fishing videos from NJ:

Certainly enough solid evidence in both vids for prosecution. In the first they were fishing directly in front of the special regs sign and in the secong they obviously walked past the 'private property-no trespassing' signs to reach the stream. No leniency in this case, confiscate and fine them heavily. Just my
$.02.

Re: 2 trout fishing videos from NJ:

At least they practiced catch & release :rolleyes:

I forwarded the video to NJDFGW to both Pat H. & Shawn C. Hopefully they will forward to enforcement and track down these juvenile delinquents.

Thanks for sharing it Andy.

Your understanding is what most people think but is unfortunately wrong; that's not how it works in NJ and that is how Lake Solitude club, Raritan Inn, etc are able to successfully prosecute people for being on their private waters every year. There is no right to fish navigable non-tidal waters like in other states (unfortunately). Yes, it sucks.

Here's a great summary of the NJ law with references:

Quote:

Waters in which the tide ebbs and flows are public to the extent that the sea flows and reflows. Accordingly, the public can use such waters for boating, fishing, swimming, and all other legal activities. On the other hand, waters with no ebb and flow of the tide are private waters and generally may not be used by the public without the consent of the owners. Non-tidal waters that are navigable-in-fact may be used by the public only for navigation, but not for other purposes such as fishing.
