I think the game warden needs to patrol paterson more because i think a lot of fish are being taken out of there.
This is a problem statewide: too few WCO's to cover many waters. You only ever see them around opening day of trout and in major parks. I go out fishing between 75-100 days a year and rarely see or talk to them. They NEED to go to the under the bridge spots and check these fill my bucket "anglers". They may not be not taking too many fish but they are taking undersized ones I'm sure. Most fish-eating fish(bass/pike/pickerel) have one per week or month health warnings. Carp are apparently the worst(no surprise)Perhaps those are the signs they should put up:
