The Willowemoc is classic Catskill walk-and-wade freestone with a long public-access tradition, but the same honesty applies as on the Beaverkill: much of the bank is private, and New York's Public Fishing Rights are 33-foot easements, not a general right to cross land. Fish the marked access, the PFR water and the NY DEC no-kill stretches, and confirm reach regulations before you go. Treat it as a hatch-and-temperature alternative to the tailwaters, not as cold release water — it warms in midsummer.
The Beaverkill's sister water and the other half of Junction Pool — a slightly smaller, intimate Catskill freestone running the same calendar of Quill Gordons, Hendricksons and Cahills past the Fly Fishing Center at Livingston Manor. The spiritual home of the Catskill dry fly.
