found on the surface level of the Bay. Said Toxins could kiill the marine life that fills the bay, and potentionally endanger
animals, including humans, who might "Eat Fish they catch in the Bay." (Source:
Full Story In The 2/22/07 Issue Of The Kings Courier). In Addition, Surface Sediment Toxins Still Reportedly Exist In
The Canal Way Waters Of The Gowanus Canal (Source: 4/07- A Recent Tv News Feature). You also Do Not Want to fish
the waters of 'Newtown Creek', From The 'Pulsaki Bridge' In Greenpoint into Queens. Esp. The Area Of Diamond St.
& Norman Avenue. Cancer Deaths and Other Illness's Are Up In The Community, and many residents are blaming The
Areas Tainted-Waters. Private, State Gov. Lawsuits are reportedly going on re: that waterway.

Personally Had A 'Colonospy' July 2nd.. NoProblems. Highly Recommed All Anglers Get One For
Your Own Good!.
An "Anal Retentive" Is--- A.) Someone who gets pleasure travelling to NYC, wakeing up early, heads to a Live Outdoor
broadcast of a morning Network Tv News show, only to hold up meaningless banners, posters and signs, cheer, yell,
scream, and wave at the camera. For what personal purpose in life ?. DUH!. B.) A smiling, overpaid, well dressed
moron who gets pleasure ringing the Opening and/or closing bell at the "NY Stock Exchange." C.) U.S. Oil Barons, and
the Wall Streeter's Who Make Big $$$ Presently from the Fuel Rate Hike, and mortgage foreclosure's. DUH!. D.)
A Persons who states "Me" or "It's Me" When They Come To Your Door and/or Calls You On The Phone. Hey, "Me" Could Be
A Murdered, Push-In Robber, Rapist, Wanted Felon 4 All Ya Don't Know. E.) Overpriced NY Area Milk & Dairy
Distributors That Charge You For "Their" Fuel Delivery Costs--Screw them, drink soda or water!. F.) Airlines that charge
you the consumer for"Their" rising fuel costs-- Yo, Not Our Problem, Use Amtrak!. "Rip-Off!."

Frequently Asked Question: "JUST HOW DEEP IS JAMAICA BAY ?" - Depending on the tide, Jamaica Bay's depth ranges from just a few inches to over sixty feet, with most of the main channels
ranging from 25 to 45 feet deep. The smaller channels in the center of the Bay range from 10 to 20 feet. Some of the
deepest places in the bay are known as Borrow Pits, where bay bottom was excavated to create fill for Kennedy Airport and
other developments. Pits at Grassy Bay have been measured at 46 feet, Norton Basin at 51 feet, and Little Bay at 64 feet.
The rest of the bay consists of shallow sandy bottom waters and salt marshes, some of which are exposed at low tide,
but covered by several inches to several feet of water at high tide. (Source:NPS/GNRA).
Angler Warning: Beware Of Possum's, Raccoon's and Other wild animals in heavy cover areas in the 5 boroughs.
Don't Challenge them. They have been observed running wildy on way too many street's, backyards, near trash, at night
here in Brooklyn.
Beginning July 4th., 2008, National Park Service/GNRA will be running a 2 yr. "Pilot" ferry service from Pier 11 In Mn.,
Via The Bklyn. Army Terminal to Riis Landing on The Rockaway Peninsula. User Fee. Great way to get to the beach or fish the
area. More info. @ www.nps.gov/gate

***Our Fishing Future: Proposed New Fishing Pier For The Red Hook Community. Proposed Open-
Public Access Waterfront Space, In Locations From Greenpoint To Atlantic Avenue.
'Governors Island' Should be made "Accessible" To Recreational Saltwater Anglers. We strongly
Urge City/State officials To designate Spots on The Island for just that purpose.
The Main Topic Of Discussion Here Is "The Best And Most Popular" Dock, Pier, Seawall, Shoreline Surfcast
Spots In Brooklyn, U.S.A.!
"ALL NIGHT BLUES HERE!"--- "HALF-DAY FISHING HERE!" -- A Long-Time Favorite Call
Out To Passing Citizens And Would-Be Party Boat Users, From Captains And Mates, Along The Emmons Avenue Pier Area.
We Hear They Don't Do That No More.
A Tree May Grow In Brooklyn---But A Fish Can Always Be Found In The Waters Around It.
"The Borough Of Churches" Is NYC's Popular "Borough Of Fishing!." "JUST OVER THE

I Welcome You All To The "First And Original Online" NYC Fishing Photo-Guide, Focusing
On Recreational Dock, Pier, Seawall, Shoreline and Surfcast Saltwater Fishing Here In Brooklyn!. We Feature Only "The
Most Popular Hot Spots" Here In Brooklyn, NY, USA!. So Come To Brooklyn And Give These Featured Spots
and Our Waters A Try. This Is The "Most Difinite And Popular Guide" Of Its Kind, As Per Our Many Past
And Recent Site Visitors!. They Use It As Their Guide To Some Great Land-Based And Shoreline Saltwater Fishing Here
In Kings County, NY..
Here In New York City, We Are Lucky That Each Of The Five Borough's Are In Many Respects
Seperated And/Or Surrounded By Much Saltwater. Brooklyn Especially.
Whether It Be The Atlantic, Jamaica Bay, An Inlet,
Or Some Beach Or Back-Bay Area. And We Have The Best Fishing Charter And Party Boats Fleet On The Planet, In Both Gerritsen
Beach, And In Sheepshead Bay.
ICE FISHING Is NOT Permitted Directly Out On NYC DPR Parks Lakes and Ponds. No Temp.
Or Full-Time Setup's, No Shelters, Period!. While The Ice On NYC Parks Lakes And Ponds May Appear Thick And Safe To Walk On,
It Is Indeed NOT. "STAY OFF The ICE"...You Could Take A Fatal Fall Into The Frozen Water. If You Have A Desire To Do Some
Ice Fishing, We Recommend You Take A Ride North, To Fish The "Ramapo River" (NY Side) For Instance. Location: Route 17 In
Sloatsburg, NY (Rockland County).
Many Of Our Elected Officials, Especially The Brooklyn Delegation, Have Great Plans
Laid-Out To Some Day Make Much Of Brooklyn's Shoreline MORE Recreational. We Hope Their Plans Include New State-Of-The-Art
Fishing Piers As Well. The Southern Tip Of Bay Parkway At Ceasars Bay Is A Great Spot For Such A Pier!. So Are A Great Many
Waterfront Spots Along The Proposed Future "Brooklyn Greenway", From Greenpoint To Sunset Park. It Is Imperative That All
Recreational Anglers Here In Brooklyn E-Mail, Telephone, Write Each Of Our City And State Elected Officials(Esp. The Brooklyn
City Council And State Assembly Delegation), Urban Planners, Local Community Boards, And Insist That "Any Future Open Brooklyn
Waterfront Parks And Spaces MUST Include Recreational Fishing Piers". "The Canarsie Pier, And The 69th. Street Pier Alone
Just Will Not Suffice Such A Need!...We Require Others In Addition To Them!."
I Am Quite Positive That Like Many
Other Saltwater Anglers, You Too Will Frequently Use This Guide To Plan Your Day Of Enjoying Some Great "Brooklyn Land-Based
And Shoreline Saltwater Fishing!." Should You Be On A "Salt Free Diet", Please Visit Our Sister "NYC PARK ANGLERS GUIDE" To
