So I'm working out of town in Catskill. The creek runs right across the street from the job site. A local told me they catch strikers just down stream from where I'm working, so my question is, do strikers actually run up the creek?

For any shore fisherman if your looking for somewhere to go fishing I would advise you not to go in front of the high school unless you want to deal with six or seven boats at any given time. Don't no how you would cast or even land a fish if you had the opportunity to have that happen. Just...

Just wondering if anyone has had any luck jigging herring from their boat in the Catskill Creek closer to the river. If so any advice? I have seen guys up near the school but I am not that familiar with that end and am a little leery of taking my boat up there. I may try it when the tide is...

I am interested in how many fisherman have caught a 40+ striper in the last 10 years? I caught my first one 3 years ago it was 44 inch and 39.5 lbs last year missed by 1 half inch. those are my 2 best in 15 years. also would like to know if they were caught above or below Catskill? mine was above.

Anyone fish from shore at this park? Was wondering if it was any good with all the boat traffic?

Greetings, While I have yet to get out this year- the last few years I've gone out in search of stripers primarily from the Catskill area (once or twice in Cheviot). All the times we used chunk herring and all the times the only fish we caught were cats and eels. Not even a run or a bite from a...

Any of you guys here fishing between the 2 bridges????? Saw 3 boats up in there and a bunch of shore guys.. pretty crowded. Just wondering how that was working out for everyone.

Looking for a campsite on the side of the river in that area that also is a good shore spot. Answer by PM is ok to keep the spot not too well known. I know a decent portion of the camp spots, but haven't had much luck is the late 90's, so I stopped fishing when I camp. Most seem to have a...

Has anyone been out down that way lately? I'm wondering if the rain has the river too dirty to fish? I haven't been out in a week, and this weekend is a bust for me. I might give it a shot even though it will be the last of the outgoing and whole incoming tide that I can fish. Not sure if...

I got a boat late in the season. Going out tomorrow, maybe tonight too in catskill. I have not had a good year, catch is zero. When's a good time to bring the boat southward, like the newburg area instead of catskill for stripers. Kingston is a possibility too. Sounds like alot of guys...

Just picked up a boat. Anyone give me some good basic pointers. I will be fishing from athens to germantown area. It's a 15 footer with a 50hp outboard. No fish finder yet. Had to buy the basics with the spare cash, flares, anchor, fire extingushier, etc.....

I am shore bound this year. I fish the catskill park by port of call and various spots in the creek in town. The river side has one heck of a tide to work against at the park, I think my rig is getting dragged into a big rock and not presenting well. You can fish the creek mouth at the...

We have been fishing the Creeks during the night into the Morning and doing quite well but all the fish have been 30 inches or less..We have been using Live Herring and Chunk, both have worked...

Going to try some offshore today around the Catskill Boat Launch by the Port of Call. First question wondering if anyone has ever fished from this spot? I heard wind of it from a buddy of mine said there was always people down there fishing striper. Second how is the water quality/temp down...
