New Jersey is getting pretty chilly these days, as winter settles in and it’s a long haul before spring arrives. For some of us, that’s the perfect time for indoor activities – and then there are those bold outdoors lovers who think this is the perfect time to go exploring, hiking, or even winter fishing in New Jersey. Almost all of our wonderful state parks and forests are open during this time of year, with most being far less crowded than you might see in other seasons. That means that for those looking for stocked ponds, the time is right to go ice fishing. A perfect example of this is Green Turtle Pond, a hidden gem of a small lake located in the beloved Long Pond Ironworks State Park. A visit here during the winter isn’t just a great fishing opportunity – it’s a chance to see this wonder in winter like never before.
