I'm not familiar with the NYC area either, but one bit of info I can give you is to find a few spots and fish them until you really know them well, then branch out and find a few more spots and repeat. When I first started I tried to fish too many places, eventually I realized that it was better to have a couple of spots that I knew how they would fish at different stages of tide, moon phases, etc. so that I could just go and fish and not have to try and constantly be figuring out what was going on. As far as spots, one of my favorite activities this time of year is hunting for a few new spots to add to my rotation in the coming season. Fish are easy to understand, they will congregate in areas that have: 1. current 2. structure 3. a food source, its not hard to find places that offer all three. The difficulty in shore fishing is finding a spot that offers the above and has: 1. accessibility 2. parking 3. is not overrun with other anglers (I hate fishing in a crowd!). Hope this helps, good luck, and welcome to the site!
