About Otego Creek
Otego Creek, in New York, United States, is a stream where current dictates almost everything. Rocks, undercut banks, and fallen timber are the obvious targets, but the productive water at Otego Creek is often the seam between two current speeds — that's where fish wait for food to drift past. Match the size of your bait or lure to whatever insects, baitfish, or crayfish you can see in the water.

Fishing Techniques
- For Smallmouth bass
Focus your fishing efforts around rocky structures, ledges, and areas with current, as smallmouth bass prefer these habitats.
- For Brook trout
Fish upstream, casting into pools and runs, allowing your bait or lure to drift naturally with the current for best results.
- For Fallfish
Fallfish often school, so if you catch one, work that area thoroughly; they are opportunistic feeders.
