][][]Herring and shad are in the river in abundance. Stripers are being taken up and down the river on cut bait and live herring. Many boats out in the Albany area and debree floating on river watch your speed and your wake. DEC officers are checking every day on the river, make sure your safety equipment is up to snuff and you are not live welling to many herring or illegal fish ( Like sturgeon) I've seen some nice stripers in the 30" plus range taken out. The rowing clubs are on the river every day as well try to pass them slowly. Good fishing and stay safe
