📣 Attention Recreational Fishermen in NY and NJ Steer Clear of Feeding Whales: We have been getting reports of feeding humpbacks close to shore off New York and New Jersey. While feeding on large schools of baitfish, these whales are focused and may have little regard for other things in the area, including boats. Fishermen are advised to pay close attention, slow their speeds near schools of baitfish, and to steer clear of active feeding to avoid entangling or colliding with massive 80,000-pound whale as it rapidly surfaces.

Ways that you can protect your gear and avoid entanglement when fishing:

•Not casting or trolling near or around humpback whales or bubble clouds.
•If a bubble cloud appears while you’re fishing, pull up your gear, if possible.
•Consider changing location if humpback whale presence persists. On rare occasions, whales have collided with stationary vessels.

A collision with a vessel or entanglement in fishing lines can cause serious injuries to the whale and sometimes be fatal. Collisions with whales have also thrown boaters from vessels and caused serious injuries and even death to people. In areas where you suspect whales will be present, slowing to 10 knots helps to prevent collisions by allowing both you and the whale time to react.
