Walleye
While Great Neck itself is primarily a saltwater destination, pursuing walleye requires a short trip inland to the freshwater reservoirs and rivers of upstate New York. Focus on waters like the Croton Watershed or the Ashokan Reservoir, both within a reasonable drive. Walleye fishing peaks during the spring spawning run (March-April) as they move into shallower waters. Fall (October-November) is another excellent time as they feed heavily before winter. For reservoir fishing, target rocky points and submerged structures with jigs or crankbaits. A local tip: check water release schedules from the dams, as increased flow can concentrate fish. Walleye in these systems tend to be good-sized, often exceeding 5 pounds, with the chance of hooking into a real trophy. Be sure to check the specific regulations for each reservoir, as they can vary.
