Fresh primary-source check per plan 8's 1b (existing raw capture was silent on a snipe-specific date/row). WebSearch synthesis (dep.nj.gov blocked for direct fetch this session) consistently returned Sept. 5, 2026-Jan. 7, 2027, daily bag 8, citing NJDEP's official 2026-2027 Migratory Game Bird Seasons page/proposal. Possession limit of 24 was not found as a direct quoted number for snipe specifically -- it is inferred by applying NJ's general stated rule that possession limits are 3x the daily limit (with named exceptions for light geese/crows) -- treat as inferred, not verbatim-confirmed.
