Westfield-Redneck

It’s a long walk from where it says you can’t drive any further which is all the way at the end of the road where an old barn/building was knocked down to the river no reason why you can’t waterfowl hunt.

I’m a DV as well and just went online and was able to get HIP & waterfowl stamp.

Anyone know of any clubs with openings that are north of 78? Semi wild would be nice but I primarily deer hunt with gun & bow. Really just looking for somewhere that is kid friendly, my kids aren’t old enough to hunt but like to come along. Thanks for any info

Anyone hunt Black River for deer? I’ve been out multiple times this year and haven’t seen anything. In years past I’ve always at least seen them but this year nothing! I am far away and no where near the bird grounds. I haven’t seen or heard of EHD just curious if others have seen a decrease in activity.

Hi All, I don’t often but when I do it’s because I usually have a question and get great feedback and am hoping I get the same for this question. There is an old farm down the road from one of my spots, and this year I noticed that is now posted with NJ State Park Signs. I cannot find any info about this property on any of the state web pages, I look at the tax maps/records and see that it is indeed owned by NJDEP and on the map says it is State of NJ Exempted. Who can I reach out to see if this property is huntable? State Park Police, State Parks general inquiry? Or is there any rule with State Park where unless its posted as NO hunting you can hunt it?

I found one by the pump house off Rainbow Dr, been out a few times and haven’t seen anything.

Walmart in Watchung usually has red worms and night crawlers, Petco/Petsmart have fatheads but no shiners and then Hate to say it but Dicks in Union on occasion have worms

So I have a 10 year old daughter who enjoys shooting. My wife wants to get her onto a shooting club/team/camp or even lessons for kids. I have looked and looked but haven’t been able to find anything. Does anything like this exist? Anyone have any ideas? We are in Union County but willing to travel for the right option. Any input would be greatly appreciated.

Hey guys, I hunt Black River often for deer, and usually park in a parking lot or a well used “pull off”. Does anyone know if I can just pull off anywhere and park? I would be off the road and technically on the WMA property. Would I need to work about getting a ticket from Chester PD? There aren’t any no parking signs anywhere but there are plenty of NO Stopping or Standing signs. Anyone have any input or experience?

There was also an add on Craigslist for this lease. Wasn’t second guessing myself not going forward with it. Now after reading all this glad I didn’t!

Hey got a question about “shoot through mesh” on ground blinds. I shoot mechanicals and was wondering if shooting through the mesh impacts the arrow flight? I’ve read other threads and found mixed reviews anyone have any good or bad experiences with this?

It’s in the conservation center and Brightwood Park. It is being ran by the county

I thought I read somewhere that it is closed until early 2020 is this true?
