On April 12, 2022, the NJDEP Fish and Wildlife’s Bureau of Marine Fisheries deployed acoustic receivers in the Delaware Bay to track migration patterns of Atlantic sturgeon.
For an eleventh year, 19 receivers have been set in water depths generally less than 20 feet. Those fishing in inshore waters may encounter white buoys marked “NJDEP Research.”
Please call 609-748-2020 for exact receiver coordinates.
