Good fishing area's near Lake Huntington?

[burmjohn]

Any suggestions on some good fishing area's near Lake Huntington?  We just got some property up there and I will be spending a lot of time up there over the next few years.  I do not know the area that well, as I hunted most of my life in Pine Bush.

That's near Mongaup Pond and Roscoe. The NYS fish hatchery is there and stocks around there. Good trout at junction pool and the Beaverkill.

Roscoe is pretty far from Lake Huntington...  lake Huntington is near Bethel, off the Monticello exit on Route 17.

Good fishing for trout and small mouth on the Delaware River,  For Largemouth bass I look for ponds in that area.  I have a couple I am allowed to fish on and catch some really nice bass out of them.  If you want I will be up there in the next month.  We could spend a few hours of fishing somewhere.

Is Delaware catch and release?

[Fairgame]

It doesnt have to be.  If it is legal you can keep it.

I've caught some nice bass out of Lake Huntington both largemouth and smallmouth.

JW cool, thanks for the info.  I saw people ice fishing on white lake and lake huntington in January.  Did you ever fish the delaware river?

Stayed in a few camp grounds on the Delaware river some from my old club used to fish it when shad would come up river,around the 10 mile river there are a lot of lakes surrounding and in the boy scout land should be good fishing and not too far from lake Huntington,the DEC used to manage the scout land during deer season not sure if they still do.I hunted that for a few years.Nice country around that area was good for bear close to the Del. river.John
