Targeting Striped Bass During Closes Season

How long have you targeted Striped Bass... For me it's close to 27 years for stripers alone.

Stripers alone huh? You really must know everything there is to know about striper fishin. Sorry I spread my time around to other fish, some more prestigious and some way less.

You can end this comedy show by just admitting you were wrong. You tried to make myself and others appear silly. Now it's all on you pal

What we DID discuss was catching bass from the back water...not ocean front. We are also discussing NJ law not NY law since the video was taken in NJ. Please cease from posting additional comments about in this thread or any others without proof of the law. Start your own thread if you feel you have something to say.

You assumed I was talking about Backwaters, I said no such thing and furthermore I even quoted the law and link from a bait store to prove that you can play catch and release with stripers in NJ.

You know what they say about ASSuming.

LMAO again with your assumptions! Striper fishing is what we are talking about, I also fish for Tog, Tuna, Cod, Fluke, LMB, SMB, Trout and Steelhead both with rod and reel and on a fly rod and reel.

But you don't know what backwaters mean? Or the rules that go along with them?

Striper fishing in the backwater is what we are talking about. You can't even understand the topic you are posting on! Maybe time to lock this thread

So basically you just keep discrediting yourself which is fine by me. Next time a thread about stripers OFF THE BEACH, OUT FRONT, 0-3NM, EEZ comes up feel free to spread your 27 years worth of wisdom. But the fact that both threads were about backwater fishing does not change the we view you...or the stupid name you are trying to call me as we were not assuming anything since the threads are about the (here we go again) BACK WATER!!!!!!!

First off lets get the name calling to stop, because we both know you wouldn't open your mouth that way if we were talking alone one on one.

So Harpoon tell me what is backwater? There is a lot of backwater that can be fished, just go to the Raritan Bay and fish any water in the back and that is considered backwater.

If You mean that you can not target Stripers in any "Tributaries" of the Delaware then yes you are correct, but to say all backwater is a farce and untrue.

So please explain Backwater for everyone...

I'd probably still call you a momo in person but would have absolutely zero reason to meet you

Jan. 1–Feb. 28: All waters closed except the Atlantic Ocean from zero to
three miles offshore. All inlets and bays are delineated from ocean waters
by a Colregs Demarcation line.
April 1–May 31: Delaware River and Bay and their tributaries closed from
the upstream side of the Calhoun St. bridge downstream to and including
the Salem River and its tributaries.

Feel free to view the NJ Fish and Game website for all your educational needs buddy. http://www.njfishandwildlife.com/pdf...igmar12-21.pdf


And if you are from NY then I have no idea what your laws are.

OK I am getting a call back from Kathy over at Fish and Wildlife in reference to a clarification on "Backwaters". Also clarification on whether you can catch and release or not in said "Backwaters".

It seems as though people who stated the F&W people are knowledgeable really aren't because i was transfered to 4 different people who couldn't answer the question and are part of the marine unit.

The rules are right there. What more clarification do you need? And why don't you call your three "friends"? That's what I thought.

Stop this sillyness. Admit defeat. You will at least keep a smidgen of respect at least from me
