Parker River National Wildlife Refuge, Plum Island, 2010 Drive On Surf Fishing Program Changes
August 17, 2010
The Parker River National Wildlife Refuge (PRNWR) has made changes to its 2010 Drive On Surf Fishing Program as a result of significant beach erosion conditions on the refuge and to help protect the delicate dune habitat.
A total of 50 permits will be sold on a first-come, first-served basis starting on Monday, August 16th.
Drive On surf fishing will begin Wednesday, September 1st. Access will only be from Beach Buggy 1. A total of 1.5 miles of Refuge beach will be open for vehicles (from 0.5 to Mile Marker #2).
Due to unusually high tides, the beach will be closed to vehicles from September 8th to 10th and on October 8th and 9th. Other closures may result due to high winds and storms.
How To Obtain A Permit: Permits can be obtained only at the Refuge gatehouse. For more information, please contact Refuge Headquarters at 978-465-5753.
