Board is till pretty dead.

Nothing coming up down south yet?

 

I have heard of people catching in Haverstraw and a few small ones in Poughkeepsie but last weeks weather really shut a lot down..........didn't see one boat on the river up toward Troy where is usually crowded already............hopefully this week changes although not by looks of today.

 

March 31 i saw aa guy catch two about 16 or 18 inches on bloodworms just north of croton point from shore to his credit they were thrown back

 

Where there is one cow there are more….no question they have made it up to Albany…..a buddy of mine fishing in Castleton.
43”……32lbs

 

 

And this is 2025?

 

Yes......2025...last Sat...this was a buddy of mine.

First of season, Sunday, scrapped two herring

 

Scapped

 

Thanks
Thinking it should go off this weekend

 

Ceely's Bait Shop open for season.
No business phone and closed on Mondays.
See Scott for quality bloods etc.

 

I went out of Newburgh on Sunday. Water temp was 45⁰F. Seems way colder than I would have expected. Saw almost no marks from Newburgh down past Bear Mt. That was with my new Simrad side scan as well.

There's a bunch caught around Piermont by the surf casters and people are catching by Raritan Bay before entering the Hudson.

I'm going out next weekend April 25/26 for two days and I bet they will move north by then.

 

Tommy K. from New Hamburg yacht club got a 47-in Saturday morning on chunk bunker down Haverstraw this morning

 

They are right on time. And I think it’s gonna be a 🔥 season

 

This is Sat night around 9

 

My buddy got a nice one in Troy…..45”, 35lbs.

 

Looks like the weekend weather spiked the bite....another nice fish caught in Troy yesterday.

 

Wow, how many lbs was that?

Get em! Best of luck to you and crew this season. Looking forward to some fatty reports

Caught tonight around 7

 

 

We got out at 7am and started just south of Poughkeepsie where we managed one 16”. We did not mark much at all from trap rock to the bridge. We started to mark a few north of the bridge but no takers. We buzzed up to Norrie and did not mark much at all. The wind flipped with the outgoing tide and it got a bit rough. We worked south from there. Not much at Rogers all the way down to IBM. We had good marks there from 6-8pm but again no takers. Its a slow start compared to last year but thats a good thing. Back out at 5am.
