Carp Fishing

To all members, the DEEP has agreed to issue a  permit to fish for Grass Carp at our lake.We need to list all participants on the permit, if you are interested on fishing the carp please forward to me your name and member number.

The permit will be for several months and we can even have a carp tournament with money given out for the biggest fish and the most fish.
First things first we need to know how many members are interested in killing some Grass Carp at the lake.

More details and recipes to follow.

Resident Game Bird Conservation Stamp

 

Resident Game Bird Conservation Stamp:
Under the current DEEP CT program, N F&G Members are exempt from purchasingthe stamp while hunting for pheasant (birds we stock) only on Club property. You will need the Stamp to hunt wild turkey, ruffed grouse, bobwhite quail, chukar and
Hungarian partridge at a cost of $28.00.

The Club encourages members to purchase “Resident Game Bird Conservation
Stamps” as all revenues from the sale of Resident Game Bird Conservation Stamps
will be deposited into a separate, non-lapsing account to use exclusively for the
purchase and management of game birds and their habitat.

If the hunter wants to hunt woodcock, crows, or waterfowl you will also need to
purchase a Connecticut Migratory Bird Conservation Stamp which also includes the
HIP permit. Cost $17.00. More information on the Website: Info on DEEP website as well as any federal permits required.

If you belong to another club and are going to hunt that location on the same day,
you are required to tag the birds taken on Newtown F&G properties to protect yourself as you may exceed the daily bag and possession limit set forth by CT DEEP.
