Palenville Freshwater Fishing Travel Tips

By Johnny Molloy
  • In the shadow of the Catskills, north of New York City, Palenville makes for an ideal base camp to fish for trout and other species in the coldwater streams of Catskill Park.
  • Esopus Creek is an easily accessible, scenic mountain stream in which to ply brook, rainbow, and brown trout. It flows into the Ashokan Reservoir, a stillwater fishing venue.
  • The Beaverkill, Neversink, and Delaware rivers are all good fly-fishing venues for those who prefer to wade the mountain waters of the Catskills. The Neversink has wild brown trout.
  • Schoharie Creek is a popular stream for roadside anglers. Like many streams in the Catskills, it is stocked by the state and makes for a good put-and-take fishery with easy access. Its tributaries offer more remote angling.
  • Willowemoc Creek and its tributaries, including slow-moving Fir Brook, are good for brown trout; you can also find brook trout in the slow, flat, upper sections.
