New NJ Covid19 fishing rules! Must read!
April 3, 2020
Consistent with Governor Murphy's orders that all New Jerseyans practice social distancing in order to limit the spread of Coronavirus (COVID-19), anglers must fish alone or with immediate family members and cannot fish in groups of any size (no matter how small), either on land or by boat. A minimum six-foot social distance between anglers must be maintained at all times. To disperse the fish and to help maintain social distancing among anglers, trout were released early and the NJ Fish and Game Council opened trout stocked waters for catch and release only for trout, from April 1 through April 10. Season, size, and creel limits for all other species apply, as well as any gear restrictions. Anglers MUST NOT congregate in parking areas, boat ramps or at popular fishing locations. Conservation Police Officers, New Jersey State Park Police, and DEP staff are actively monitoring our parks and natural areas to ensure that individuals enjoying our natural resources are maintaining social distance. Any groups encountered will be instructed to disperse to maintain social distance, and if they do not comply, tickets will be issued by law enforcement. The sooner we all comply the better. We all need to fight this fight together. We gotta kick this beasts ass and get it out of our lives. I have friends that are nurses in Union, Essex and Bergen county. They are going through absolute hell. They’re not the only ones though. I also have people, friends in my circle of life that are suffering from this virus. It is not good at all. Good Americans are dying! Let’s be safe guys. WE CAN DO THIS!!!

Was told by reputable source , if they see the boats full with guys like they have been .
Marinas and boat ramps at the shore will be closed next . 20 foot boats having 4/5 guys on them aren’t using their heads . Was told instead of putting their staff at risk monitoring the people on the boats are from the immediate family/household they will just shut it down .

If you get the emails from F&G WMA will remain open is up to us.! Unfortunately we as fishermen are not the problem most of us fish alone or with our kids/ family. It’s all of the ppl going to places ( state and county parks) that caused those shut downs.I get it they want to get out of the house and exercise/enjoy the fresh air. Fishermen have to pay the price also.It’s frustrating.
