The current NJ limit is the same as last year, 1 fish from 28-38 inches (yes, they had a higher top end all along.) They deferred decision on the emergency regulation to a meeting sometime this month (June) to gather additional information and public input as all states technically could have done.

There is no trophy tag in NJ, but in place of a commercial fishery they have a striped bass bonus program for recreational anglers which allows tag holders a single additional fish between 24 and 28 inches.
