to read this map Highlighted stretches run through, or along, places you're allowed to fish from: DEC'sPublic Fishing Rights easements (the strongly shaded strips along the banks), state forests, Forest Preserve and Wildlife Management Areas, state parks, New York City watershed land, county and town parks, and federal land. Dimmed stretches cross private land or land with no access information. Public Fishing Rights usually cover a strip of bank on one or both sides; stay within it, and respect posted signs.
Many NYC DEP watershed areas in the Catskills need a free DEP Access Permit. This is a guide built from public data, not a legal determination of access.

How the numbers work. Guide rates are full-day prices from outfitters' own rate pages, or from booking sites where noted, collected in October 2026. They exclude tips, licenses and tax, and most pages don't say which year they apply to. Non-US prices are converted roughly to US dollars.
Ratings. Crowding, difficulty and public access are editorial calls based on each fishery's reputation. If one is wrong, use the correction form on its page.
