Bass

I am going to repeat myself, fishing is slow because we are experiencing a heat wave. Most
of  Prospect Park's lakes surface is covered by algae.

Jay wanted to experience fishing in Prospect Park Lake for bass.  The bass fishing is excellent
in Brooklyn.  Big bass are caught frequently.  It is not easy but it can be done.

The New York State Department of Enviormental Conservation, takes surveys of the lakes on
Long Island.  What these surveys show is that from Flatbush Avenue, in Brooklyn to the Montauk Light
House, at the eastern most tip of Long Island; Prospect Park Lake is the best bass fishery
on Long Island.

The lake is the second largest in the City of New York ( 60 acres).  It has lots of structure too.
There are fallen trees and lily pads for bass and other fish to hide.   The lake in Fresh Meadows,
Queens is larger but it is a tidal lake ( 100 acres) and has no bass.
