Are we allowed to bring our own kayaks? we are from New York State, Are we allowed fishing there? thanks.

Yes, you can bring your own. Done it myself. You used to be able to get a license (maybe temp) from the rental stand. Due to COVID, they might have moved this to the front office.

Yes. You might need to register at the office.

Yes a lot of people fish too

Yes I have seen people bring their own Kayaks. Not sure if you need a permit
