Mike95 Posted June 17 Share Posted June 17 Hello all, M[28] in Bergen County, looking to get more into hunting. I am just wondering if anyone is local and wanting to meet up and help show me the ropes. I am an avid hiker, fisherman and camper. Love spending time outdoors and would love to translate that into hunting. Thank you! Rusty 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike95 Posted June 17 Author Share Posted June 17 Appreciate the warm welcome. Northern Bergen County, not to be specific with my town. I don't mind traveling through Bergen/Rockland County. I am familiar with a lot of the land in these areas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JerseyJaysTaxidermy Posted June 17 Share Posted June 17 Hardest part about hunting in nj is finding private land to hunt on. There is public available, and although there's some really great public land , you might end up with your gear stolen as many public land guys do. Carry in and carry out. You have the time now before season opens, start knocking on doors and asking permission to hunt. Use onx maps app and pay for the yearly subscription to help you figure out who's doors to knock on. Once you lock down a "honey hole" call me and I'll come hang my stand😁😁😆 Bergen county is far from me, I'm north west nj. But if you need a hand looking for sign and want to drive up my way I can take you to a public land spot and walk you around to show you what to look for... (white oaks, runs, rubs, etc) Fredon nj, pm me if you want to come by Mike95 and gregtpal 2 Jersey Jay's Taxidermy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
