Delaware water gap becoming National Park??
ChillyH2O:
It seems like “Delaware water Gap national recreation area”may be turning into a “National Park.” If this happens it seems like the park would be closed to HUNTING!!! Wow I can’t even imagine. NJ isn’t some big western state with large tracts of public lands. This would truly be a loss to us hunters and idk what they may do about motor regulations on the river…..
FM67:
Sure hope it doesn’t happen
njsquatch:
they are talking about categorizing certain areas as a "Preserve" which allow hunting and fishing but agree the hunting and fishing community needs to stay on top of this

There are regs already in place regarding speed on the river. I foresee a bunch of new regulations being implemented in the coming years if it does turn into a park. Hunting will be curtailed in many areas with the usual excuses. We all know what happens when the government handles anything- FUBAR.....

Categorizing as a “preserve”. Sounds like a way of trying to get hunters to back off. Hunting would be very limited or not at all.
