Planned to go out this weekend for two weeks and then saw that it was supposed to rain ALL DAY. Thought what the heck and went out anyway - grateful that I did. Hooked up with Sovereign Living and a member of the Riverkeeper organization and had some wonderful conversations.

I learned of Riverkeeper when researching the origin and current levels of PCBs in the waters near Manhattan (and the fish that inhabit those waters). They keep tabs on water quality independently and have a ton of volunteer opportunities - the annual trash pickup is pretty low key and fun and they have a ton of sites around NYC.

I have fish there and also randalls island Caught alot stripers and flukes and red robins ,i know you are a saltwater fisherman but u should also try freshwater fishing like central park theres alot of fishes there and would make great content for your channel.

Ohh that’s a great idea and one that I’ve been thinking about doing for sure - I do fish freshwater (I actually fish freshwater more than salt!) but on a fly rod, so maybe I’ll try that in Central Park hahaha Also, I really enjoy your channel man, awesome stuff!

It was crazy, I thought it was sign from God that the fish floodgates would open wide... but... it was only just really nice weather hahaha

Loved the time-lapses and genuine candor on the up's and down's of fishing!

Fishing right after a rain? Combined Sewage Overflow; gnarly man... It ain't just the PCB's one has to worry about... But thanks for keeping up with your videos. They're really entertaining especially for lazy guys like me that wish I had your energy and gusto. Cheers!

@FishNY 3 года назад

Haha I actually got into a long and detailed convo with the gentleman from Riverkeeper on sewage overflow - I was shocked at how little rain it takes for the overflow to occur. You should get out there too! No need to go when it rains obviously…

@ralphrepo 3 года назад

@@FishNY Just FYI, one of the spots that you've been to, Gantry Park Plaza, is actually a sewage discharge point. Several years ago, I remember seeing a sign by the outflow point notifying citizens of its presence there and to be mindful that when it rains, sewage flows from that area. The signs look like this: www.flickr.com/photos/j-no/6502788121

I like your videos. You’re out to have a good time fishing. I fish many of the same places you do. Hope I get to meet you one of these days. Tight lines!

@FishNY 3 года назад

Appreciate it man, would be happy to catch you around - also, don't feel shy about putting some of your catches up, I'd love to see and learn how you approach these spots too!

Awesome video! So happy to have the pleasure of meeting you on the pier. Keep the content coming, and looking forward to a collabo soon!

@FishNY 3 года назад

It was good times - wish you could have stayed longer! It'll be better times the next time we fish together, hopefully the weather will be good the whole time through lol

Nice man! Current must me ruff at that location! Any issues with snags?

@FishNY 2 года назад

Thank you! Yea the current can be pretty strong over there (or for most piers in the Hudson). Hardly any snags out there actually, I'd say across all of the Manhattan Hudson River piers north of battery park, I get snagged like once every 5 outings? I've found that the East River and the southern tip of Manhattan are super snaggy.

Where is this located

@FishNY Год назад

This is Pier I (the letter), it’s on the west side of Manhattan right at the end of 70th street. Beautiful park to just take a stroll or have a picnic at the cafe that’s there, but decent fishing too during the spring and fall.

Is it legal to fish at pier 1?

@FishNY 2 года назад

Yep, just need to make sure to follow the regulations for gear and types of fish to target. You should also sign up for the NY marine registry before fishing - it’s free and more something the state does to try to keep track of saltwater fishermen.
