Can anyone from New Jersey tell me of any good freshwater fishing places that you don’t need a boat for?
Looking for places that you can walk into and fish from the shore or bank.
Why fish freshwater when you can fish saltwater? If you have light tackle, that’s even better. Try the Keansburg pier for your first time. You might catch a fluke or bluefish, or striped bass,weakfish, etc…
What does this say about citizens rights? Pathetic?

Anti-alien protest in Lakewood called off
Organizer cites safety concerns
Posted by the Asbury Park Press on 08/16/07
BY ZACH PATBERG
TOMS RIVER BUREAU
LAKEWOOD — The organizer of a scheduled rally against illegal immigration has canceled the event, deciding there was not enough security to protect the crowd and speakers.
Diane Reeves of Lakewood, who planned the protest for Aug. 25 at the town square on Clifton Avenue, pointed to rumors that such gangs as MS 13 and the Latin Kings, as well as some out-of-town militant groups, would disrupt the rally. That, coupled with the conflict that occurred at a similar protest last month in Morristown, convinced Reeves that the handful of officers Police Chief Robert Lawson promised to provide would not be enough protection.
“I was nervous that if something happened, what were we supposed to do?” Reeves said.
She and other rally supporters voiced resentment that the township had not agreed to assign more members of its 125-strong police force. They pointed to Morristown, which supplied a strong police presence at the protest over the same issue in late July. Five people were ar-rested and two were slightly injured at that event.
“I was very upset when I heard,” said Carmen Morales, vice chairwoman of the advocacy group You Don’t Speak For Me, who was supposed to speak at the rally. “I feel Lakewood is like a sanctuary for illegal immigrants . . . and (the police) seem to protect them.”
Officials relieved
Mayor Raymond Coles stressed that the Morristown rally was municipally sponsored, as opposed to the privately organized one in Lakewood. Lawson said he could not justify taking more officers off patrol duty, and the township could not afford the overtime.
Beyond that, Coles and Lawson agreed with Reeves’ decision to cancel.
“I’m relieved,” Lawson said. “Lakewood has a large number of undocumented residents . . . and now you’re going to have a group in the center of town speaking out against illegal aliens. So it’s possible there’d be friction between the two factions that could lead to confrontation.”
Coles said, “This is a very emotional, heated issue and bringing two very emotional groups together might cause problems.”
Estimates of the number of illegal immigrants in Lakewood range from 5,000 to 20,000. A 2006 estimate by the U.S. Census bureau put the township’s population at almost 70,000.
Lawson added that it was common for organizers to pay for off-duty police officers as protection at rallies. The Lakewood rally was expected to draw up to 500 people and was to have five speakers, including two family members of victims of the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks.
Reeves, who has never organized a rally before, now plans to find an indoor venue in another town to hold the protest, saying that since the cancellation she has heard from angry supporters offering contributions toward the cost of a demonstration.
“Look at the 100,000 illegals getting protection to march down the street everywhere else,” she said. “But me, a citizen, has no right because of safety issues.”

Just another example of the liberals protecting the illegal scumbags. If that town had any real intestinal fortitude, it would round up all the illegal scumbags, and ship them back to the garbage-dump of a country they came from. Then there wouldn’t be any need of a rally. Problem solved.
14′ V-Hull – Jersey Shore Bay?
I own a 14′ Aluminum V-hull. I plan to purchase a 15 or 20 HP outboard. I plan to use it for fishing.
Will this be stable in the Jersey Shore Bay? How should I expect the boat / engine hold up?
I’m new to boating any suggestions or advice would be appreciated!
Thanks!
I’ll probably be going out from sea isle or wild wood.
is a license needed to fish N J shore?
I assume no license is needed aboard a party fishing boat but is one needed if you are surf fishing on New Jersey shore?
As of Jan.1 2010 you need to register with the national saltwater fishing registry, you can do it on-line or over the phone. Its free…for now.
I think next year you will have to pay for it, but they’re not calling it a “License”, but to pay for registering and if you get caught without doing so, you will get fined…… sounds like a license fee to me, don’t you think? AHhh, don’t you love politics.
