In fresh water. In water untainted by whatever slurry makes up the Hudson River on any given day. If you're a resident of the Heights good fishing is just a stone's throw away. A discontinued reservoir, Reservoir 3, is located at the corners of Summit Avenue and (wait for it) Reservoir St. and offers 8-acres of fun with bobbers.
Jersey City Recreation Department's Anthony Gray, said the serene 8-acre body of water is teeming with catfish, bass, and sunnies.
Gray says the recreation department has run an after school program at the reservoir for the last six-years teaching youngsters how to fish. Now, that experience is open to anyone interested free of charge.
And they supply the bait and poles? Holy man, why aren't you fishing Jersey City? Johnny's gotta take his pole he put away (In Michigan you have to own a fishing pole, it's like the law and stuff) in storage and get over there one of these mornings.
