Long
Island’s Best Freshwater Fishing
By Tom Schlichter
Can you name six Long Island lakes that have
produced largemouth bass weighing over nine pounds? Do you know
the most productive beats and fly patterns for catching monster
brown and rainbow trout on the Connetqout and Nissequogue Rivers?
Can you nail a 30-pound carp, catch a pickerel as long as your arm
or tempt walleyes, crappie and bronzebacks within a few miles of
home? Can you find Bubbles Falls, Rattlesnake Creek, Deep Pond,
Wildwood Lake or Swan Pond?
You’ll learn all this and more from Long Island’s
Best Freshwater Fishing, by Tom Schlichter. This 144-page book covers
more than 70 of Long Island’s most productive freshwater honey
holes. From Prospect Park Lake in Brooklyn to Big Reed Pond in Montauk,
Schlichter provides keen insight about when, where and how to fish
at each of the waters discussed. Over 100 high-quality photos –
all taken on Long Island - cover the action in detail. From lunker
lakes and fast-action hot spots, to super lures and techniques that
work anywhere, Schlichter covers every angle.
A former freshwater field editor for
The Fisherman magazine,
Tom Schlichter is an award-winning outdoors columnist with a well-earned
reputation for catching monster bass, trout, carp and pickerel in
local waters. A resident of Southold, New York, he has fished Long
Island’s rivers, streams, lakes and ponds for nearly 40 years.
There is no guess-work here - Schlichter has personally caught big
fish at every location covered.
