Walleye
Walleye fishing near Chatham, NY, requires a bit of a drive to larger bodies of water, but the effort can be rewarding. While not within the immediate vicinity, the Hudson River and certain sections of the Mohawk River (accessible with a reasonable drive) hold populations of walleye. Focus your efforts in the spring and fall, particularly during low-light conditions like dawn and dusk. Jigs tipped with minnows or nightcrawlers are effective presentations, especially around bridge pilings and rocky points. Be aware of the current, as it can be strong, and adjust your jig weight accordingly to maintain bottom contact. The walleye in these rivers can be surprisingly large, so be prepared for a fight. Check the DEC fishing regulations for specific size and creel limits for the Hudson and Mohawk Rivers before you go.
