Click on this link to find out more on the sinking of the HRFA as part of the NJ artificial Reef Project. A complete list of the videos is available at the meetings. Check with HRFA director Dan Harrison at the door during the general meetings. With research gathered from numerous HRFA members, who have fished these waters for years, you will find this a valuable asset in fishing the River. The pamphlet lists the areas to fish at what time of year, for what species, and what techniques and baits to use.
Tides play an important role in the success of fishing the Hudson.
A spot that produces fish on one tide will generally not produce on the opposite tide. This is all discussed in the pamphlet. Tips on tackle, Currents, Baits, and even where to buy your baits are discussed. The Lamont Doherty Earth Observatory is sinking a Hudson River research station at the end of the Piermont. Pier .The station will serve as a pilot program for the rest of the river as well as waterways around the globe.
