Public Trust: Public Trust Access Issues in Allenhurst, NJ

[DarkSkies]

The new DEP ruling that Finchaser was talking about is one of the biggest things to happen to Public Access for shore fishermen and other beach users in the past few years.

Many don't understand the significance of this reading. Finchaser did, that's why he posted it up.

What it does, according to the ruling, is give shore towns carte blanche to restrict fishing and other access as they see fit.

The only way to fight this is to institute a series of lawsuits to fight for our access. Since most fishermen have very little time to devote to these issues, there's very little chance of a court case, and those town officials and DEP architects of this plan know it.

Feel free to post any comments regarding Allenhurst in this thread.

It will only get worse before enough people get upset enough to try to combine forces and fight it.

Welcome to the current reality.

One of the most famous jetties in the state. A buddy told me last year that guys were cleaning the cow bass they caught and leaving what was left on the beach near the rocks. Stupid is as stupid does. It would be so easy for the richies of that area to band together and say no more fishing. People just don't get it. We fishermen are a bunch of pigs.

This won't close the area down. What it will do is make it more inconvenient for fishermen who are serious about jetty fishing. So, in essence, it does restrict or reduce access.

There are good and bad points to that.
