NY State Fishing License

[dobee]

Hi everyone,

 

Thinking about heading to the catt at months end and was wondering if anyone could point me in the direction of some spots along the river? or if anyone has stayed in that area, a hotel suggestion?

 

also, when do NY state fishing license's expire?

 

Thanks alot!

Joe

NY licence runs from Oct 1st to Sept 30.....I just renewed mine! I have no idea on spots on the catt.....but with the rain it could be a crap shoot!

Charlie has the dates correct on our NYS fishing licenses. Oct 1 to Sept 30th.

 

I was at the Catt yesterday but only to launch and motor out for perch fishing which I prefer. HOWEVER, I always check on what is going on as far as trout/salmon fishing at the Catt.

 

NOW is PRIME for the Catt. I talked to one local while getting my minnows for perch fishing and he said he already got his limit that morning (I talked to him at 8:00am) with skein. One the way back in at 11:30am there were still some boat fishing in the creek and just outside the mouth of it. When I motioned how they were doing they gave me the THUMBS UP.

 

BTW the perch fishing is EXCELLENT (25 perch) and was hoping to return on Friday but I see the winds are going to be high, however Saturday is looking better.
