Herring Fishing - PICKING PIER HERRINGS - Queens to Brooklyn NYC, NY 

Herring Fishing - PICKING PIER HERRINGS - Queens to Brooklyn NYC, NY. Herring fishing. Three ways it can go. One, no fish at all for you. Two, a slow pick. Three, and everyone's favorite, full racks of herring from day to dark. Today was one and two for me. Tried first in Queens for one, then I headed into Brooklyn for two. Take my word. The potential for three is out there. If you are looking to maximize your catch on a pick of herring be sure to rig proper. I use a single sabiki and flasher. For a pick herring bite it pays to double or triple your rigs, use long rods, floats, flashers and lights. You will have the water column covered. I am happy using one rig but I know folks come from far or may only have limited time to fish a bite.
