Seabrite river fishing

[Merle31483]

To everyone who fishes the bulkhead at the river in seabrite they have built a permanent 5foot high fence along the whole bulkhead I fished there Thursday night there was no fence installed went back Friday night there was a 5 foot high fence installed along the whole bulkhead starting from the bridge all the way down to the houses. Good luck out there and stay safe

I can't remember if anyone has ever fallen into the river and drowned along that stretch. It's all about insurance and liability. If a fisherman or drunk or anyone accidentally fell into the river and drowned, who would be sued? No one wants to be sued so you can see the reason. But, as I said, it has never happened, that I know of. This is the only country where someone's own carelessness and/or stupidity can make them a millionaire.

I have been fish that spot since superstorm sandy wipped out the house along that bulkhead even before the storm I was fishing on top of the bridge when we all still could and I can never say that I have seen or heard of any fisherman falling in the river and drowning there has not been a fence there since sandy and that was in 2012 now all of a sudden they put a fence up there killing a prime time striper spot in the spring and fall and I know I'm not the only person on this forum that fishes there

Since Contributory Negligence is an affirmative defense, and no one owed the duty to the drunk to protect him from his voluntary incapacitation he'd win little to nothing. And a BAC blood sample is easy to get from a dead drunk. In fact where (which town) between Monmouth Beach and Sandy Hook and the west shore he fell in. No matter. That's an on paper reason

But in short, the people dont want lurkers around their property. Or holding a fishing rods to case their property for surveillance cameras, nosy neighbors or occupants . NIMBY.

No matter, fishermen are out. Crabbing stinks there as the Shrewsbury current is way too strong. I feel your pain Bro.
