    @theskyelife YO this is crazy, I'm the guy you were talking to while fishing 🤣 8:15 . I'm just seeing this now after 2 years. I was just going through other people videos fishing in central park cuz I posted one a couple of days ago, wild! Nice meeting you man🙏🏾

    Love the video! Have fear of moving to NYC if I can't fish anymore. This relieves all that. Word of advice. The rod is breaking because when the fish is close and reeled in you are pushing the handle out towards the lake/fish, causing it to go into way passed a point of where it was designed to go. It is reaching a horse shoe shape which will break every time no matter how big the fish is. The ideal position for a rod is half a heart. If you where to split the heart vertically. One side is bent while the other side is neutral. Love this content!

    I once caught a 6 lb bass on a fly rod and a Wooly bugger in Central Park! One of the best fly rod fights of my life!

    I winced when that rod broke, think I actually felt a little pain in my chest. Loved the attitude afterwards though and to go after them again! I probably would have sat there looking into the far distance for like ten minutes lol, great video, love this stuff.

    The fish in that pond expect people to feed them and swim close to tables looking… There’s hardly any sport in fishing there.

    @basskicking4532 Před rokem

    I knew u would catch a carp when u put bread on 😅 u need a heavy or extra heavy rod and u need to give it line and make it tired…. Good catch! Any suggestions on where to catch large or smallmouth bass around NYC?

    • @TheSkyeLife
      @TheSkyeLife  Před rokem +1

      One spot in the park, hike it around, explore, u will find. Other than that head north to the reservoirs. Fish where others don’t. Or try tried and true water up that way. U will call catch them with dedication and persistence. 👊

      UL would have been fine but the carp ran when he had his hand high on the rod. high sticking will break any rod

    • @RF_NY1
      @RF_NY1 Před 10 měsíci

      Yes and no......technically yes but the park rangers don't check. What they might check is to see if you are using barbless hooks as you're supposed to. The only time I was checked for a license (Had one) in a nyc park was at staten island's silver lake and it was by DEC officers, not park rangers.
