FISHING UP
FUN
WRITTEN BY DIANE WHITTEN, FOOD AND NUTRITION EDUCATOR, CORNELL COOPERATIVE EXTENSION SARATOGA COUNTY
Get off the phones and get outside! Fishing is a great summertime activity for any age, and it’s a great way for people of all ages to have fun together. Many people fondly remember being taught how to fish by a parent or grandparent, so dig out those fishing poles and nets, and find a fishing spot.
Some of the best places to fish include... the Great Sacandaga Lake where the largest Pike caught in NYS came from, The Kayaderosseras aka Kaydeross Creek which is stocked with trout, Geyser Creek in the Saratoga Spa State Park, Moreau Lake State Park, Saratoga Lake, Ballston Lake and Round Lake. The Dept. of Environmental Conservation has maps that show access points with parking at www.dec.ny.gov/outdoor/9924.html. 94 | SIMPLY SARATOGA | SUMMER 2022
