Due to its location and its enormous variety of lakes, rivers and hundreds of miles of coastline, New York State has some of the finest fishing in the United States. Therefore, sport fishing is one of the most popular outdoor activities among its population and visitors who get to New York following certain fish species.
Besides the great lakes at the north and the Atlantic Coastline, fishing lovers could find fantastic places in the heart of the city. In Long Island, the Walleye could be found in two excellent fisheries that have been established in Lake Ronkonkoma and Fort Pond. The Peconic River is a good place to find Chain Pickerel. In Bronx and Queens it is common to see the presence of Black Bass.
Once you have chosen the place where to go fishing, it is advisable to check out the local rules, since there are protected areas, species and seasons with a regime of catch and release (for example all parks in New York City which only allow catch and release).
