BRONX DPR PARKS YOU CAN FISH IN:


The BRONX RIVER: By The Waterfall at 180 Street and Boston Road. Local anglers swear by the spot. Unknown what species of fish are in the River. Ask any angler On Scene. Caution: It is Illegal to climb over the protective fencing or down onto the rocks and/or waterfall. There have been serious injuries to those that had. Even a few deaths, so heed the Warning!.
 
CROTONA PARK POND ('Indian Lake'):
Location: Claremont Pkwy. And Crotona Pk. East, Crotona,Bx.. SPECIES OF FISH FOUND: LM BASS; BULLHEAD CATFISH; BLUE GILL.
The POND IS 3 ACRES. On Some Official Records It Is often Refered To As 'Indian Lake.' It Is Thought That Back In The Late 1800's Some Local Youth Gave It That Nickname. So, In All Respects It Has No Relation To The 1960's "Cowsills" Song Of The Same Name. Ya Know, "The Cowsills", That Real Life Mom & Kids Family Band That Many Say TV's "Partridge Family" Was Based Upon. 
TAKE THE IND "B" Or "D" TRAIN TO The "170th. STREET Station." TAKE THE BX17, BX11, BX15/55 BUS TO GET THERE. 

Van CORTLANDT PARK LAKE (Riverdale).
Location: Area Of West 242 St. & Broadway, Riverdale, Bx.. SPECIES OF FISH FOUND: CARP; BULLHEAD CATFISH.
The Lake Is 30 Acres. The Park Community, As Well As Adjacent 'Woodlawn', Is Yet Another Major Irish Enclave!.
An Even Bigger Irish Enclave Is Is A Wee Bit Up The From Woodlawn, Along McClean Avenue In Yonkers, NY---Where You'll Find Such Great Irish Establishments As 'RORY DOLAN'S' Pub & Restaurant.  A "LINK" To Their Website Is Below!!! To Get To The Park, Take either the IRT "1","4", Or "9" TRAIN. Or Ride Aboard The BX2, BX3, BX9, BX10 BUS.
 
Angler Note: Pelham Bay Park Offers Anglers Some Good Saltwater Fishing Opportunities. There Is 'Pelham Bay' Itself, And 'The Lagoon'. Forget Fishing In 'Turtle Cove', For The Name Alone Says It All.
 
URGENT HEALTH WARNING...From Local News Media Stories On July 5th., 2005...TOXIC CANCER WARNING!...DO NOT FISH On The Property Of, Or The Waters Around "The Pelham Bay Landfill." Yes, It's Closed. 13 Nearby Residents (Men, Women, Children) Reported Then That They Had Contracted Cancer From Their Residency Proximity To The Landfill. Lawsuits Against The City Of NY By These Individuals Were Reportedly Pending. We Do not have an update to all this at this time here in 2007.
