Tonawanda Creek Fishing Access is a New York State Department of Environmental Conservation (DEC) access site on Tonawanda Creek in Niagara County, western New York. The creek here holds brown and rainbow trout, and DEC opens up many of its trout streams through public fishing rights easements, which let anglers fish and walk a strip along the bank of otherwise private land. A New York freshwater fishing license is required for anglers aged 16 and over, and the state's trout stream regulations apply, so check the current DEC guide for the stretch you plan to fish.
