Fishing and fish here and there

April

Drag a net through the shallows of the Hudson River and who knows what you’ll find. In this case, these seiners over the weekend came up with this chunky catfish. This was at Norrie Point, which I’ve featured here before.

Those with the net also pulled up other river secrets, including a stickleback and a tessellated darter.

Want to try fishing yourself, at least with a rod and reel? The state has its annual free fishing weekend in June and a host of free fishing events scheduled around New York. To find boating and fishing spots along the Hudson, go here.

Plus, the Putnam County Federation of Sportsmen’s Clubs is holding a fishing clinic this Saturday (5/3) at Tilly Foster Farm in Southeast. “Learn everything you need to know to enjoy fishing for a lifetime,” the flier promises. Class size is limited to 60 and registration is required for the free event. Call 845-225-6312.

I keep listening to the news speak about getting free online grant applications so I have been looking around for the best site to get one.
