in the river and use them for bait?
the Answer comes from HRFA member Nils Eckhart: Catching herring in the Hudson River to use as bait can be done a few different ways,but please be aware that it can be a time consuming and sometimes frustrating affair. Because of this I find it much easier and more efficient to purchase herring,either live or fresh dead, for my striper fishing.New York State regulations allow anyone with a valid NY fishing license to take Blueback Herring and Alewives for their personal use as bait in the Hudson River below the Troy dam including tributaries to the first barrier.
