Tuna Permit
« on: April 02, 2009, 09:41:29 AM »
You need a permit to boat a Bluefin, no? Where do I get this? I scoured the NJ Fish and Wildlife website, got my Bonus Striper, Crab Pot and shellfish permits, but found nothing on tuna.

Help.

Thanks!!

The permit is for the boat, not an individual fieherman. It is not something every person on board needs. It is not transferable from boat to boat.

Also keep an eye on their site once in a awhile. The NMFS can change the regs at a moments notice and its our job as fishermen to be aware of the change.
