Kissena park.

Yesterday I went to kissena park in very cold windy rainy conditions and caught nothing at all. As long as kissena lake is not iced over and temps are above 40 I will be going all winter long with worms. I found a tackle shop in college point that will sell worms all winter long. I tried The entire lake. 5 minutes or less in each spot. I think I had one hit the worm was gone but it just was dead weight. Not sure. Trips will be far and few between going forward. Tight lines
 
Today i caught nothing at kissena park. There was ice on parts of the lake but it quickly went away as it approached 50 degrees. I think this is my last trip for awhile once this rain ends it will get sharply colder once again. Unless we get temps in the 50s and 60s for a week this is it.
 
Today was a very mild day was near 60 degrees and I tried fishing at kissena lake and once again caught nothing at all. Just 2 days ago there was Ice on the lake and today I went all the ice was gone from the rain and warming temps. With temps in the teens this weekend I won't be going again the rest of this week and all of next week. If the warm spell lasts into the first week of the new year I will give it a try.

You should take a ride to Coney Island pier. I hear they're catching Herring and Mackerel.😉

Also worth trying college point.

Today went fishing at kissena park. There were several others fishing as well. We all caught nothing. I had worms. Another angler corn for carp. Lures. Nothing. Until we get a week in the 60s I am shutting it down.

I was going to post yesterday but the site was down. A two day report. I went fishing Tuesday at kissena park and caught nothing . Tried 20 different spots nothing. A guy was carp fishing 2 hours nothing. Yesterday I started off at kissena I wanted to try the spot the Carp fishing was he said he was chuming the water. 20 min nothing I did see a few turtles and one bluegill. I left that spot and tried a spot that I had success in the past and nothing. Then I sight fished that entire side of the lake and saw nothing. So I left and took a walk to bowne park and that long walk paid off. I caught 20 bluegill some hybrid bluegill and 4 very Tiny bass. No pics or videos I just wanted to get them off the hook and back in the water immediately. I was using live worms. At kissena the lake is much bigger and also lots of turtles comorants Osprey eating the fish. Bowne park I didn't see any Osprey or cormorant. At bowne tried 3 spots at first absolutely nothing. So I was going to sight fish the rest of the lake and saw bluegill and the Tiny bass swimming on the surface so I tried there at it was game on. One after another was alot of fun. Going to take a break for a few days. Tight lines.
 
Today I went fishing at kissena park and it was awesome. Caught my personal best pumpkinseed and catfish. I also caught 3 largemouth bass and alot of sunnies. All fish caught on worms. Might go back there tomorrow
 
Sorry for the late report. Sunday I had a short window to fish. I had to walk to the bait shop to get night crawlers bought 2 dozen so I start fishing around 2pm and I finished around 4pm and it was game on. Had 3 nice size largemouth bass and I dropped several fish probably bluegill I was using big hooks. What a fight on light tackle. I stayed at the same spot for two hours. The two dozen worns were gone. Here is the video of my biggest bass. I might go to Kissena this Saturday weather permitting
