I'm guessing no fishing on the shores is allowed but as long as you are in a kayak or boat, it is legal?

Thanks for any info guys.

Don't pay any attention to those signs. That preserve is managed by a shadowy anti-hunting group called "Wildlife Preserves, Inc.". In the fall, they dress in ranger costumes and patrol the woods looking for hunters in the no-hunting zones.

You are allowed to fish in the river, regardless of whether you are on foot or not. You can dismiss the signs as just the delirious ramblings of insane members of a vegan cult.

There are bears back there too which is kind of neat for an area surrounded by developments.

I have hunted on many of the New Jersey Natural Lands Trusts properties (the one that allow hunting of course)through the years without any issues. If your unsure give them a call,(609) 984-1339, and ask them if fishing from shore is allowed. They are a good bunch of people and answer all your questions.And get the person who manages the properties name and number in case someone hassles you.

I'll check with them, thanks!

Thanks to all who posted, all info was very helpful. Can't wait to go there again, possibly in a friend's boat.
