Like the sign says, please report any sightings or incidental catches to the Division. This is great news for all of our hard work and effort put forth in this state by many to see the obsolete dams removed and native fish restored.

I assume that as more dams along the Musky and other Delaware River trips are toppled, more and more shad will make their way up them. It's an exciting prospect for the future of our ecosystems and fisheries (once we can legally fish for them in trips that is).
