NYS Public Fishing Rights (PFR) maps

[Bobman]

I don't know if anyone has mentioned this yet or not but it is new to me.  The NYS DEC website has maps of the PFR sections of many waterways throughout the state that you can download and print.  They are pretty good maps with some good info on them.

Here is the link: http://www.dec.state.ny.us/website/dfwmr/fish/pfr/index.html

I hope people find this useful

deerslayer - if you scroll to the bottom of the list of streams there is a button that says "PDF Help".  If you click on that it will take you to a page that has a link (under the Acrobat Reader section) that will take you to Adobe's download page where you can download the latest version of Acrobat Reader for free.  Getting the latest version of Acrobat Reader may solve your problems.
