NYC Fishing Report: Perch, Bass Biting Deep Despite Winter Chill
from New York City Hudson River Fishing Report Today · host Inception Point AI
Hey folks, Artificial Lure here with your Hudson River NYC fishin' report for Saturday, January 3rd, 8:32 AM. Winter's grip is on, but the bite's alive if ya know where to cast. Weather's chillin' at around 32°F with light winds from the northwest, partly cloudy skies—perfect for bundlin' up. Sunrise hit at 7:25 AM, sunset's 4:45 PM, givin' ya a solid 9-hour window. Tides? Low slack now at the Battery, flood risin' till noon, then ebbin' strong—fish the incoming for best action, per NOAA charts. Fish are schoolin' deep in the colder water. White perch are hot, with that state-record 3-pound 4-ounce beast just smashed from nearby waters by a Brooklyn angler late last year, says the DEC—same species lovin' the Hudson, hittin' jigs, worms, and minnows hard. Striped bass are holdin' in tidal creeks and deeper holes, per On The Water's latest NYC report. Limits on stripers at 28-31 inches, one fish. Small catches of bass too, but they're finicky. Top lures: Small jigs or blade baits in black/silver for perch and bass—yo-yo 'em slow off the bottom. Jerkbaits with long pauses for stripers. Bait-wise, bloodworms or clams on a fish-finder rig shine. Gear up light spinning rods. Hot spots: Pier 25 in Tribeca for easy access perch action, and the George Washington Bridge north side—structure holds stripers on the flood. Stay safe, check regs on DEC's HuntFishNY app. Thanks for tunin' in—subscribe for daily updates! This has been a Quiet Please production, for more check out quietplease.ai.
