2 Questions in 1 for Fresh water fishing in NJ?

Here’s a question posed by a fellow New Jersian!

I made a last minute decision to take my two boys (9 and 7) fresh water fishing tomorrow morning. I live in Union County and was wondering if anyone knew of a lake or pond near by. (Seely’s pond and surprise lake? This is a last minute Idea and I don’t want to travel to far, any ideas?
Second question- I do not plan on fishing with them I just plan on helping with tangles, Knots and baiting the hook. It is extremely rare that I go fresh water fishing, do I need to purchase a license if I do not intend to fish? I am an avid saltwater fisherman because I have never had any real luck fishing the lakes. Any tips would be helpful.

  1. I don’t know a place but in New York even if it is just the kids fishing the adult is expected to have a license.
