New Laws And Regulations

Just a reminder that all boaters are required to wear a Personal Flotation Device (PFD) when underway in a boat under 21 feet in length between November 1 and May 1. On NY waters.

    Marine License:

    Beginning October 1, 2009, all anglers, required to do so, must have a recreational marine fishing license.

    Persons 16 years of age and older need to acquire a recreational marine fishing license if they are:
    • fishing in the Marine and Coastal District or
    • fishing any water (such as the Hudson River, Delaware River, or Mohawk River and their tributaries) where the angler is fishing for "migratory fish from the sea" (such as striped bass, American shad, hickory shad, blueback herring, alewife).
    The Marine and Coastal District includes all the waters of the Atlantic Ocean within three nautical miles from the coast ands all other tidal waters within the state, including the Hudson River up to the Governor Malcolm Wilson Tappan Zee Bridge.
