HELLO And A WARM WELCOME TO OUR HIGHLY ACCLAIMED, HIGHLY PRAISED, WELL VISITED REC.
FISHING WEBSITE, FOCUSING ON DETAILED INFORMATION ON ALL The ASPECTS OF RECREATIONAL "CATCH
& RELEASE" FRESHWATER FISHING IN URBAN NEW YORK CITY DPR PARKS,
WITHIN THE FIVE BOROUGHS Of "The BIG APPLE."
Basically My
Aim, Being A Felllow Angler, Is To Provide "YOU" The Angler, And/ Or Curious Visitor, Basic Web Surfer,
With All You Need To Know About Enjoying This Exciting Recreational Sport, In Our Urban New York City Parks.
And Whom Would Have Ever Thought That There Would Be "Great SWEETWATER Fishing Opportunities"
In Our Backyard Urban NYC Parks. People Have Been Fishing These Parks For Generations Past!. I Honestly
Cannot Remember The Number Of Times I Had Been In A Local Tackle Shop ( Like "Bernies" In Sheepshead Bay)
And Some Other Anglers Would Ask Me, "Where Ya Headed ?." I Have Physically Left Them In Awe When I Told Them About
The Lake In Prospect Park, And All The Other NYC Parks Lakes And Ponds. As A Result Of Such Conversations, Many Seasoned
Local Saltwater Anglers Have Now Also Turned Into Becoming Regurlar Freshwater Park Anglers.
BROOKLYN'S PROSPECT PARK Is Home To The Worlds Most Well Know BASS, Named "R.H. MACY."
"Having A Bad Luck Day Saltwater Fishing ?"..." Then Got Off Your Butt And Go Get Your Valid NYS
Freshwater License, Then Head To A City Park Listed Herein, And Try Your Hand At Freshwater BASS Fishing, Guy (Or Gal) !."
As Always With Recreational Fishing, There Is No Guarantee (Neither Can We) That You Will Hook Fish In
Any Given Noted Park. Remember, There Are Many Factors That Come Into Play (Shoreline Noise; Time; Season; Water Temps.;
Weather; Phases Of The Moon; Your Choice Of Bait; Your Own Presentation). Then Again, Maybe The Fish Are Feeling
Lazy & Just Do Not Want To Come Out And Party Today. But Its Worth Your Time To Just Give It A Try Anyway.
Here On Our Web Site You Will Find Detailed Information On Such Topics As: The Basics Of Fishing
Urban NYC DPR Parks; Who, What, Where You Can Legally Fish; Species Of Fish You Will Find; Recommended Bait & Tackle To
Use; Our Guide To Local Bait & Tackle Shops; Where To Purchase The NY State Freshwater Fishing License, Borough-By-Borough;
And The The Official NYC DPR, And NYS DEC Rules and Regulations That Are Presently In Effect; Even Directions To
Get To Many Of These Parks Via Car, Bus, Subway. *A "NO KILL", CATCH-AND-RELEASE" POLICY IS IN EFFECT IN
ALL NYC DPR PARKS WHERE FISHING IS PERMISSABLE ON A LAKE Or POND*
Reminder: Our City DPR Parks Lakes And Ponds Waterbodies
Contain Waterfoul and Other Animal Wastes. As A Result You Definetly Do Not Want To Take Any Fish Home For A Meal. Species
Of Fish From Our City Lakes And Ponds Waterbodies Are Also Not Intended For A Home Aquarium. For They Will Indeed Not
Survive And Will Indeed Die. Keep "Our Aquatic Friends" In The Lake Or Pond You Hooked Them Out Of.
In Retrospect, Just Like In Prospect Park, Most Park Drain Systems Feed Into The Parks Lakes And Ponds. "Yuch!."
We Recommed You Bring Packets Of Toweletts, A Towel Or Rag To Clean And Wash Your Hands-Off With, After Having
Them In The Water, And On All Fish You Briefly Handle, No Matter What. Yo, "Fish Slime Sucks", Right ?.
And Finally, Your Fellow Park Anglers Citywide Just Ask That You Too Also Respect The "Annual
Pre-Spawn Period." If You Are A park Regurlar, You SHOULD By Now Know The Exact Spawning Spots In The lake Or Pond You
Fish.
Have A Taste For Saltwater ?... Then You Will Find A Listing Of The Sheepshead Bay, Brooklyn "Charter & Party
Boat" Fishing Fleet, On Our Very Popular, Highly Acclaimed, Well Visited (Major Hits!) Sister
Website, 'The BROOKLYN SALTWATER FISHING PHOTO- GUIDE'. Just Use The "Link" On This Sites "Links Page"
