Notice the inlet at the Shrewsbury and Navesink.  The chart is from 1778.  The inlet was closed in the late 1800s by the railroad.

Fishing in the barnegat bay was probably amazing then. I'm sure a lot more migrating breeding fish would have stopped there... It just feels less and less productive every year in the ocean county back waters

.....they will never be done.

"Law enforcement’ is not something sovereign citizens seize from police officers. It is a societal function that citizens delegate to civil police.

In so doing, we do not abdicate our own sovereignty, nor our duties as citizens. Ultimate responsibility is still ours. When those we hire as our “Protectors” are either unwilling or unable to perform that function at the critical moment, there is no law, nor standard, that says we cannot perform it for ourselves"........

Tog fishing was really bad up north last year. The captains I talked to all said the beach replenishment was silting the rockpiles off shore and either causing the Tog to leave or get lock jaw. I went out 3 times and every trip was a struggle for the whole boat. My best day was 4 keepers.

All this dredging doesn't just ruin the beachfronts....
