I took my kayak out this weekend, doing a combination off fishing and exploring in several different water bodies. I found the fishing a bit difficult, since I have a decked kayak and I was sitting too low in the water to have good visibility and couldn't see the weed beds and other structure...

There are kids in Whiting?;)

That strikes me as odd, with the line from Lakehurst to Woodmansie being owned by Clayton. I would not expect a change in its status at a point along that segment.

Or, how did animals survive for so long, without us saving them from each other?

I can’t agree more with dragancjo’s comments. While I’ve seen some of what I considered repetitive and arguably unnecessary research over the years, the majority of it added to our body of knowledge and I’d far more prefer erring on the side of more knowledge rather than less when it comes to...

It could have been worse Al. You could have used it after you ate! :rolleyes:

Poison ivy is one of the more valuable plants on the barrier islands. Many bird species feed on its berries, particularly during fall migration. Protecting a few historic structures from it should be no big deal but I wouldn't want to see an attempt at eradication from an area.

Welcome to the hunt! I started to poke around on a day I had some free time pop up last minute but it was at the start of the tick and chigger season and I paid the price, even though I should have known better. I decided to renew the search when cooler weather returned. I searched the area to...

Nothing beat the Raccoon Casserole Professor Wolgast served at the end of his wildlife biology class. Mmmmmmm :)

I just realized that Mickey and I stopped at that site on an Ocean County Parks hike a few years ago. I noted from the topo map we carried that it was a former gun club site but there was almost a foot of snow on the ground when we were there so it was much less interesting at the time.

Yesss!!!!! No charge for extra grease!

That bottle brings back not-so-fond memories of living next to the Squibb plant in New Brunswick during my college years. A west wind always brought unpleasant aromas.

There is also the free ramp a bit downstream at Amasa Landing at the mouth of the Bass River. A 4x4 comes in handy on that ramp however (don't ask me how I know:rolleyes:)

I have a small amount of pamphlets on the greenhead fly published by Rutgers years ago that contain plans for a trap. If you would like one I can either mail it to you if you PM me your address or I can leave it at the Tip Seaman Park office for you to pick up, as I see you are in Tuckerton. I...

Geese deserve a small part of the blame for poor water quality but get more than their fair share due to being more visible (and often louder) than the other sources. Development within the watersheds draining into the bay, along the non-permeable surfaces that come with it, is the main cause...

I think I might like that system more if it came with a missile lock feature (without real missiles, of course :rolleyes: ) to help suppress the occasional road rage I encounter.

My favorite is usually one of the spots most recently discovered. I like change. :)

When I bought my home in Little Egg Harbor 25 years ago these traps were much more commonly seen than they are now. They were placed on the then-private Atlantis Golf Course, all of the marinas on Seven Bridges Road and on many other private properties near the bay or meadows. Every one I ever...

Part of the explanation for this apparent discrepancy is likely Holgate’s designation as a Wilderness Area, which is managed under different rules than other parts of the refuge are, such as the wildlife drive section in Oceanville. Not only does that unit have all the man-made features you...

I was familiar with the process of preparing limestone in kilns in the northern part of the state, even having visited a few. I had never heard of it being done with oyster or clamshell before. But then again, maybe I did. My memory is not what it once was. :confused: I can see where roasting it...
