Title: Night Fishing
Post by: Kb2112 on July 19, 2023, 07:04:47 PM

Hey all, hope all is good.

 Im thinking of doing some night fishing, and was wondering about those submersible green lights.   Are they worth it, and are they legal?

 I was going through the syllabus, and couldnt find anything.  I even did a search of the DEC website, and came up with nothing. 

thank you for any advice, Im waiting for an email back from DEC, and that might not happen by the weekend.

I’m looking to target crappies on a lake in Putnam. Not a reservoir.
