I fished the string of Saranac Lakes a few times and had good luck with Smallmouth Bass and we did catch a few small Pike. If you want more information message me.
Ok I'll give you PA/NJ rules , if your fishing say the Del. River between. PA and NJ and your boat is reg in PA and you launch from NJ you must adhere to NJ creel limits. Now with that said suppose you want to fish a creek/stream off the Del River that would cause you to leave the Del River and enter the State of NJ you are required to possess a NJ Fishing Lic. The boundary water rule only applies from bank to bank of the boundary water.
Call it angling for a good day and a healthy life experience.
I seen it a couple times at Raystown Lake the explanation I received when I asked about it was "They are looking around"
