It's no coincidence that scup and fluke fishing on the West end is way, way off. One look at what commercial landings for both species are in the winter and you'll realize we catch what's left over which isn't too much!
Same goes for bunker and other baitfish.
The worse thing about that sign is it discourages the casual tourist who might want to take his kid out and hurts the captains who need business and try to drill it out even when fishing is tough.
What's sad in NJ boats fishing in NY waters for fluke and getting away with keeping 18" fish. So much for conservation. As long as NJ gets theirs you screw NY!
It's assinine and suggesting a day trip to fish on a NJ headboat is even more assinine!
Waiting for DEC to start boarding NJ boats in NY waters and start writing tickets. We're well aware how NY regs suck. No need to keep throwing it in our face.
