Fishing License

Fishing the Delaware River either a Pennsylvania or a New Jersey License will work for the Delaware River. You can typically buy a single day, multi-day or yearly fishing license at your local tackle shop, sporting goods store or Walmart. New Jersey offers online license and Pennsylvania licensing

NJ Buddy License can save you and your buddy some money NJ Buddy License


Note: Snakeheads Read

To maximize your fishing experience I would reccomend having both a New jersy and Pennsylvania fishing license. This will give us the flexibility to up creeks and other cuts that are off the main steam of the Delaware River that a single license may not cover. If you bring a Pennsylvania license only we can only fish the Pennsylvania waters, same is true with New Jersey License

What to Wear

During the late spring the weather can be very nice but it can also bring rain storms. Check the weather first and bring the approriate clothing bassed on the forcast. Dress in layers and bring a rain gear when appropriate.

Typically in the summer months shorts and short sleeves are fine but a hat is mandatory to keep the sun glare from obstructiong you view of the water and fish.

What to Bring

All tackle and equipement is provided. Make sure you have a good pair of polirized sun glasses, hat, buff, food, snacks, and a small cooler. Or let us know and we can bring the cooler, just bring the ice.

If you wish to bring your own Rod and Reel or tackle feel free.

Meduim Light action to Medium Action Rods work best for Snakeheads, bascially largemouth equipment.
