The resolution designates the first full week of June each year as New Jersey Fishing and Boating Week, emphasizing the significance of these activities in enhancing quality of life and promoting environmental conservation. Fishing and boating are highlighted as vital recreational pursuits that connect residents to the outdoors, with statistics showing that millions of Americans engage in these activities annually. New Jersey, with its diverse fishing opportunities and extensive waterways, serves as an ideal location for such recreational activities, fostering family bonding and environmental awareness.

To promote this initiative, the resolution calls for the Governor to issue an annual proclamation encouraging public officials and citizens to participate in related activities and programs. Additionally, the Division of Fish and Wildlife is tasked with publicizing the week and coordinating at least one of the state's free fishing days during this time. The overall goal is to inspire greater participation in fishing and boating, allowing residents to appreciate the natural beauty of New Jersey during one of the best months for outdoor activities.
