You can bait in bear swamp. I believe you can bait anywhere in NJ. I would show you around there but I moved out of Sussex 5 years ago. There are deer there I’ve seen em. I haven’t seen any big bucks but I’m sure there around because of all the woods and farms near by. Give it a shot but if you bait use some sweet horse feed because you cant see it from a distance and other public hunters wont see it and hunt over it. Good Luck post a pic of what you shoot.

You cannot bait on federal reserves and including the delware river gap.

They don't call it bear swamp for nothing! There are a ton of bears in there and baiting will only bring them insted of deer!!

GhostBear is right about being careful when baiting in bear country. One time I walked up to a bear while heading toward my tree stand. He was at my corn-bait pile.
It was pitch dark and luckily I just spotted some movement.

Oh well, I guess there are to of them then I thought you were talking about Bear Swamp W.M.A. in Zone 1.

It's Natural Lands Trust and you can Bait there.

But don't leave a stand there overnight. It's famous for stand thefts.

In the end, it's the "HUNTER" that gets the deer not the BOW !
The bowman, to be successful as a hunter, must learn to perfection the habits of his game.
NO MATTER WHAT TYPE OF BOW HE USES !

There is a Bear Swamp in Zone 3 also.  It is part of the Ringwood State Park system but this is posted in the section "zone 19"

Do you own land in Bear Swamp?  Alot of the swamp is private property!!!
Posted:  28 Oct 2007 8:05 AM
The reason why you don't see cars is because you shouldn't be in there. I own part of it. D
