Wiscoy and East Koy Creeks are nice for Troutdoorsman

WISCOY CREEK:
 Fed by cold springs these are some of New York State's finest wild brown trout streams. The Wiscoy Creek flows southeast thru Bliss and Pike.  There are about 9 miles of public access, popular with fisherman.
  • A section of the North Branch of Wiscoy Creek can be accessed north of Bliss, off Route 362 (Pearl Street).
    Trout Brook is a quality tributary with brook trout that is just south of the East Hillside Road Bridge.
    Main Street, Route 19, near the Pike Library.
    Beardsley Park Rest Area on Rt. 39 outside of Pike.
    Water Street, west of Rt. 39, on CR 50.
    Rt. 19 to Canal Street turns into East Koy Road, CR 24, with 4 marked access points.
