Subject: Free Fishing License for the Blind
To fish in the fresh waters of New Jersey with hand line, rod and line, or 
longbow and arrow, you must have a valid fresh water fishing license or 
trout stamp. This includes privately owned lakes and other waters. Fishing 
licenses must be worn in a conspicuous place on the outer clothing while 
engaged in fishing, and must be exhibited to law enforcement personnel on 
request.
CBVI consumers, age 16 and older, who are legally blind can apply for a free 
fishing license through their CBVI caseworker or local service center. The 
application must be completed and sent to the NJ Division of Fish and 
Wildlife (NJDFW) by a CBVI staff member.  Once the application is received, 
NJDFW will issue  and send the license directly to the consumer.
To apply for a free fishing license call CBVI at 877-685-8878.
For further information from the NJ Division of Fish and Wildlife call
