Is a Marine Waters License required for the recreational use of cast nets, minnow traps, dip nets, umbrella nets, seines and eel pots?
Yes. A Marine Waters license is required to take fish and bait species in the marine district by any method. Do I also need a Marine Waters License to take fish under my Personal Use (10 pot) Lobster License? No. Personal Use Lobster License holders are permitted to take fish following recreational harvest limits. Harvest of finfish from lobster traps must be reported along with lobster harvest in the annual logbook submitted to DEP.
