Sun and Moon Times

The sun will be at it's highest point at . Today we have 15:3 hours of daylight. For shallow water fishing the twilight periods are often the most productive fishing times, especially on days when a major or minor time will coincide with twilight. In low light conditions predators have better cover for their ambush and often hunt in shallow water.

We can compare the current moon distance to it's minimum and maximum distance from earth and express that as proximity. A high proximity means the moon is closer to earth. At 50% it would be at it's mean distance. A high proximity causes big tides, currents and has a direct effect on increased bite times. A proximity greater than 90% indicates a super moon.

For fishing, stronger tides are often favourable as they cause stronger currents and more motion on the sea bed. The above tidal coefficients give us an indication of how strong the tides are compared to their average. A value over 90 indicates very strong tides, known as spring tides. A low value indicates weak tides, known as neap tides. The tidal coefficient can range from 20 to 120 with a mean value of 70. A higher number usually indicates better fishing.

7 Day Fishing Weather

The weather plays an important role in fishing. Wind strenght and direction often determine where you can fish and where fish might be holding. Although high pressure is usually good for fishing, steep pressure changes often trigger feeding frenzies and are great times for fishing. Of course temperature has also a strong effect on fishing and comfort on the water. So make sure to cross check the weather forecast with the solunar fishing times to determine the best times to go fishing. The graph below shows you the 3 hourly weather progression over the next 7 days. Scroll the graph left or right to see more.

Fishing Overview New City

Fishing around New City, NY revolves around two distinct settings: the big‑water environment of the Hudson River just east of town, and the quieter reservoirs, ponds and creeks scattered through Rockland County. This mix lets anglers chase everything from spring striped bass and shad runs to year‑round largemouth bass, panfish and catfish within a short drive.

Seasonal patterns are key. In early spring, as water temps creep into the mid‑40s, the lower Hudson draws pre‑spawn striped bass, American shad and hickory shad. Focus on deeper channel edges and current breaks near access points south and east of New City, using heavy jigheads with soft plastics or 1–2 oz jigging spoons worked close to bottom. By late April and May, stripers push shallower at dawn and dusk; toss larger soft plastic paddletails, bucktail jigs and live or cut bait on fish‑finder rigs.

Meanwhile, local lakes like Lake DeForest and nearby small impoundments warm earlier along north‑facing shorelines. Largemouth bass stage on the first drop outside shallow coves; pitch compact jigs, 3–4 inch Texas‑rigged worms and suspending jerkbaits parallel to the bank. Panfish such as bluegill, pumpkinseed and crappie stack in brush, downed trees and culvert mouths; tiny tube jigs or live worms under a small float are reliable producers, especially for kids and beginners.

Summer shifts the pattern to low‑light periods. On clear reservoirs and ponds around New City, dawn and last light are prime for topwater bass fishing with poppers and hollow‑body frogs over pads and shoreline grass. As the sun climbs, bass slide to deeper weedlines and mid‑lake humps; drag Carolina‑rigged plastics, football jigs or drop‑shot rigs along the contour changes. On the Hudson, night becomes the best window for channel catfish and white catfish. Target inside bends, eddies below points and marina mouths with cut bait, chicken livers or stink baits on slip sinker rigs.

Fall brings aggressive feeding across the region. Bass and pickerel pin baitfish against rocky banks and inflowing creek mouths. Cover water quickly with medium‑running crankbaits, spinnerbaits and swimbaits, then slow down with jigs once you locate a pod of fish. Yellow and white perch, plus chunky sunfish, school tighter in 8–15 feet; vertically jig small spoons or use drop‑shot rigs tipped with live minnows.

Winter fishing options depend on ice conditions. In milder winters, open‑water anglers do well slowly presenting jigs and small minnows on the deepest breaks of local ponds and reservoirs. When safe ice forms on smaller waters, set tip‑ups baited with shiners for bass and pickerel, and jig tiny tungsten heads with waxworms for panfish. Always prioritize safety and local knowledge before stepping onto any ice.

Tactical tips specific to the New City area include staying mobile, packing light and matching presentations to water clarity. Many smaller lakes and ponds have limited shoreline access, so a kayak or small car‑top boat greatly expands your options. In the typically clear to lightly stained reservoirs, go with natural colors—green pumpkin, watermelon and shad patterns—on fluorocarbon leaders. The Hudson often runs darker; brighter chartreuse, white and glow finishes stand out better in current and stained water.

Structure and cover drive location. In local lakes, look for transitions: rock‑to‑mud bottom changes, weedline edges, riprap around causeways, and any visible laydowns or overhanging trees. On the river, focus on current seams formed by points, pilings and channel swings. Side‑imaging sonar is a powerful tool if you fish from a boat, but bank anglers can mimic the same strategy by fan‑casting and counting down lures to feel out depth and bottom type before committing time to any one spot.

Interactive Fishing Map for the greater New City area

Beaches and Bays are ideal places for land-based fishing. If the beach is shallow and the water is clear then twilight times are usually the best times, especially when they coincide with a major or minor fishing time. Often the points on either side of a beach are the best spots. Or if the beach is large then look for irregularities in the breaking waves, indicating sandbanks and holes. We found 6 beaches and bays in this area.

Haverstraw Bay - 7.11657540482km , Patsys Bay Marina - 9.41355614073km , Croton Bay - 9.59607999828km , Stony Point Bay - 9.67072327645km , Stony Point Bay Marina and Yacht Club - 9.85691839984km , Half Moon Bay Marina - 10.05395472633km

Harbours and Marinas can often times be productive fishing spots for land based fishing as their sheltered environment attracts a wide variety of bait fish. Similar to river mouths, harbour entrances are also great places to fish as lots of fish will move in and out with the rising and falling tides. There are 10 main harbours in this area.
