Look up WildBill on here and send him an email - he is in that area and an avid fisherman......

Westchester County just outside the city has a ton of water. I've heard the big reservoirs have decent bass action but when I lived in Manhattan I usually fished the smaller lakes and ponds -- those fish had never seen a Senko or frog EVER. Trouble is the season is so short compared to out here.

Are there bass in Central Park, and can you fish it?

Yes and Yes, Mike Iconelli did a City Limits shoot down there and pulled a nice largie out of Central Park...you should have seen the looks he was getting

Problem is I'd be living in new york city and I'm trying to find an apartment where I can still have my truck, let alone bring my boat

Sorry to here about the move to the city. I lived in upstate new york (Elmira), from 1975 to 1983. Black lake is nice, and finger lakes have nice smallies. St. Lawrence seaway is nice.
The big problem is the weather. I got to where I liked the winter better than the summer. I knew what I was dealing with and loved to hunt. Summer plans are always in jeopardy of getting rained/thunderstormed out. Good luck and make the best of it. Sorry, don't know anything about down state. I was 15 when my dad said we were moving to NY. I asked "the city" and he said no. If he'd of said yes, I was running away.
