I'm from upstate NY but I now live in Delaware. The best freshwater (that's all I do) fishing I've experienced was in Minnesota. NY is nice, too. But Delaware is by far the worst. The "lakes" here are all man-made by damming a saltwater tributary. Over the years they became freshwater but they are only 8-15' deep, at best. Average lg mouth are 3lbs. Occasionally someone might pull in a 5-6 pounder, and there have been a few 8s but they are very rare. There are no walleye or pike. We have some pickerel but they are very small, 2-3lbs at best. I can't wait to move and get back to real fishing.
