Public Fishing Rights Maps East Branch of the Delaware River About Public Fishing Rights Public Fishing Rights (PFR’s) are perma- nent easements purchased by the NYSDEC from willing landowners, giving anglers the right to fish and walk along the bank (usually a 33’ strip on one or both banks of the stream). This right is for the purpose of fishing only and no other purpose. Treat the land with respect to insure the continu- ation of this right and privilege.

Public Fishing Rights (PFR’s) are perma-nent easements purchased by the NYSDEC from willing landowners, giving anglers the right to fish and walk along the bank (usually a 33’ strip on one or both banks of the stream). This right is for the purpose of fishing only and no other purpose. Treat the land with respect to insure the continu-ation of this right and privilege. Fishing privileges may be available on some other private lands with permission of the land owner. Courtesy toward the land-owner and respect for their property will insure their continued use.

These generalized location maps are in-tended to aid anglers in finding PFR seg-ments and are not survey quality. Width of displayed PFR may be wider than reality to make it more visible on the maps. Please look for this PFR sign to ensure that you are in the right location and have legal ac-cess to the stream bank.

Description of Fishery

The East Branch of the Delaware River is divided into two sections by the Pepacton Reservoir. Below the Pepacton Reservoir, the East Branch is a tailwater fishery that supports wild populations of brown, rainbow, and oc-casional brook trout; plus seasonal anadromous runs of American shad with reports of occasional striped bass. The DEC stocks close to 3,000 brown trout annually in this stretch of river. Above the Pepecaton Reservoir, the DEC stocks a little over 5,000 brown trout annually in this section. Wild brown trout production exists. Public Fishing Access is granted by NYC via a DEP permit immediately upstream of the Pepacton Reservoir to the village of Margaretville ,but no Public Fishing Rights are available upstream of there except in one tributary stream, the Bush Kill.

Note:

Special regulations apply. See Fishing Regulations Guide.
