Upstate New York Hunting And Fishing

Warren County claims some of the best wild game country in the Northeast, especially for black bear, Adirondack whitetail, Eastern coyote, snowshoe hare, ruffed grouse and woodcock. Washington County, noted for its abundance of deer and wild turkeys, has 20,000 acres of state-owned hunting land.

Within the six-million acre Adirondack Park are over 200 lakes and ponds, many on public lands, in addition to the major rivers and streams. Lake George is known for landlocked salmon, lake and rainbow trout, smallmouth bass and several species of panfish. Smaller lakes and streams are home to brook and brown trout, and bass.

New York State Law requires both hunting and fishing licenses for residents and non-residents. Licenses may be purchased at city, town or county clerks' offices and other locations. For complete information, contact the NYS Department of Environmental Conservation
