New York Fishing

It might be known as "The Big A[pple", but it could just as easily be called "The Anglers Friend" because of all the fishing opportunities that the state of New York has to offer. New York is a large state and there's plenty of room for not only freshwater, but also saltwater fishing. The state of New York also has decent runs of great lake running steelhead and salmon (that's right, steelhead and salmon don't have to run to the ocean. The great lakes work fine as well). All types of fishing are available in New York, for everyone from a beginning to the professional angler.

Whether you enjoy salmon fishing on Lake Ontario, fly fishing for steelhead on the Salmon River, or deep sea fishing from Montauk for mako-shark, the fishing in New York offers something for almost everyone, and many people overlook it. New York charter boats are available for freshwater fishing on Lake Ontario, Lake Erie, or Lake Champlain for salmon, steelhead, lake trout, walleye, as well as other fish. There are also many charter boats that are available for phenomenal saltwater fishing on Long Island from locations such as Freeport, Orient Point, and Montauk. The point is that if you are an angler, New York has plenty of fish for you.

New York is such a large state with so many bodies of water that fishing rules can become quite tricky. Make sure you check the regulations on whatever body of water that you're planning on fishing. One thing is for sure, the use of worms is perfectly legal, and it's always a good idea to have an efficient way to carry your worms. The days of carrying around those bulky Styrofoam containers are gone, and you may want to look into getting a bait bag to carry your worms while fishing in the great state of New York. You can either make one yourself or get one from JRWfishing; the point is that you should have one.

If you're a resident of New York a fishing license is going to cost you from $20 to $75, depending on what you're fishing for and what you want to do. Again, these rules can get a bit confusing. If you're a non-resident a license will run you around $40. New York also has lifetime licenses available for those of you who aren't leaving the state. Lifetime licenses are from $60 to $350 dollars, depending on your age.

The bottom line is that no matter what species of fish you're looking for and no matter what method you use for catching those fish, the great state of New York has something for you. The state has so much to offer the average angler; they may never have to fish anywhere else. They call New York the center of the world; well it could be considered the center of the fishing world as well. If you like the sport of fishing, the great state of New York is most certainly worth investigating.

Fly fishing tips

Fly-fishing is fun for just about anyone that likes to fish. They will have a great time being in the open outdoors and near the water as well as the fun of fishing. It is the best challenge that any fisherman could ask for.

There are many tips for fly-fishing and they are easy to know and remember when you need them. The most important thing to remember is the way that you cast your reel. You need to practice as much as possible. You need a good throw that will get your line out on the water so that you can catch the best possible fish.

Anyone can run into some unexpected problems. Most of the problem with fly-fishing is the way that you cast. It is all in the way that you cast with your wrist. You need to bend your wrist and get the right motion that is necessary in order to cast that reel at the very best position.

You should never let the cast hit the water behind you when you are reeling out. This is a very common mistake that a lot of fisher man experience. Keep your thumb pointed straight when you cast and try to keep your shoulders relaxed while you bring your arm back. Keep your body relaxed and not tense. This is the most important step in casting out.

When you are baiting your line, you may want to use two or more flies on it. This will get you better results when you are trying to catch a fish. You can use whatever gets you the best results the quickest.

Wearing the right clothes is also a good idea. If it is hot outside, you should make sure that you are dressed in the right outfits. You want to wear light materials that will keep you cool. If the sun is shinning, you need to try and not create a shadow on the water. This will make the fish suspicious and they may not bite as often. You need to do whatever possible to keep the fish unexpected of what is going on.

When you do the above-mentioned things, you will have better luck and more fun fly-fishing. There is no need to get over anxious about fishing. It is all about fun and enjoyment of the sport and being near the water. Anyone can have fun at this sport. It does not matter what age you are or how good at it you are. You will get hours of relaxation and pleasure when you join the fly fishing world.

Deep Sea Fishing For Pollock In Maine

Pollock are considered to be the most active member of the cod family, and are found readily in seas off the coast of Maine. Though not renowned as being a particularly big fish, pollock are still considered to be one of the best off-shore catches around due to their strength, speed and agility. Once hooked, pollock tend to make fast, powerful runs, which are a real challenge on lighter tackle and one which is relished by anglers up and down the coast of Maine.

Pollock can be identified by a light, lateral stripe that runs along the length of their body. The top of their bodies tend to be either olive green or a dark brown, fading to a lighter shade along their sides and a silver belly underneath. Some pollock have a tiny chin bar bell, though it is thought that this feature may be missing completely on older fish. Large adult pollock can grow up to forty inches in length and weigh in at around thirty-five pounds, though more typical fish are around a foot in length and weigh anywhere between four and fifteen pounds. Their meat can be eaten, though is not considered as good a meal as cod or haddock.

Like other members of the cod family, pollock can be attracted using a variety of baits, with those such as shrimp, herring, clams and worms considered to be the best. The technique used to catch pollock can vary, with casting, trolling and jigging all proven methods which work well. Many Maine anglers prefer to fish using light tackle, which presents a real challenge when a larger pollock takes the bait and makes a run. Heavier tackle can be used but is largely unnecessary given the average size and weight of fish caught off Maine?s coast.

Pollock are predatory fish, and tend to be found lurking near wrecks and disturbances on the sea bed, with shelves and ledges making particularly good places to fish. Pollock are fairly common off the coast of Maine, and popular areas to fish include the Gulf of Maine and the south-western area of Scotian Shelf. Both areas are renowned for cod and haddock as well as pollock, making them popular destinations for chartered fishing trips.

Though pollock are one of the smaller fish targeted by deep sea fishermen, their speed, agility and fighting nature present everyone from the absolute beginner to the seasoned angler with a fierce challenge.
