What anglers said about fishing in Jamaica Bay

Keep your eyes peeled, you never know what you might see. In the summer in NYC, you can catch humpback whales, dolphins, and apparently loggerhead sea turtles. The marine life in and around NYC seems to be flourishing, our waterways are cleaner than theyโ€™ve ever been before.

Utilize fishing Booker for your Fishing Reservation, and utilize our favorite Captain, AUSTIN OUTFITTERS. Coming from KY, staying in Manhattan, and fishing in Brooklyn, we highly recommend reconning your travel routes to and from if youre going to take Subway as a bunch of rookies!!

Bring your own fishing poles, the pole they provide are good, only issue is they only have โ€œRight Handed Polesโ€ and they are โ€œBait Castโ€ poles so it is difficult to cast further than 3-5 feet off the boat. For best results bring a โ€œSpin Cast Reelโ€ which allows you to cast further out and also helps you not get tangled in other peoples linesโ€ฆ.

Do it! I lost count after hooking into 5 bluefish - the smallest was probably about 7 pounds. We landed one small schoolie bass. The fish were coming in fresh from the ocean. The weather was awesome - not too cold, not too hot. I grew up in New York and I had never seen the skyline from that particular angle.
