609-748-2020 Call them its the df&g tell them what you need.
Its better to sit in a boat and think about God, than to sit in a church and think about fishing.

Are you busting me, or being serious?  ;D
 
You have to get 1 for each trap right?  100$ each permit + trap + bait + fuel...that's sick.

At the end of the day, it's more expensive to do it yourself(probably by a factor or 5->8times more expensive) than just going to an expensive restaurant and buying whole lobsters cooked.

I'm looking at it from a 'recreational' perspective.  It's expensive to do it without the permit, but then another $100?  It's just too bad.

You know it, it's crazy the cost when you factor in fuel! 

It is cheaper for diving gear...I don't know if i could do it though. I think it would freak me out.

It's also cheaper to go to the grocery store and buy fish than to drive down to my boat and go out and fish. Never mind the cost of keeping the boat each year.  It's about the adventure not the end result.
A good day of fishing is better than a bad day of fishing. A bad day of fishing is better than a good day of work. That means work sucks!
