There are some weird rules for some of the lakes in upstate NY, so I would definitely err on the side of caution to avoid a stupid fine. I would check the respective city and county websites, if they don't have the answers there, I would call them to ask where.

Scope them out. See of you see others, I mean calculate your risks. I agree with above^^^, assume the answer to fishing is no, be aware of fines.

Btw..

How would you know there are fish in the area you want to fish with your kayak?

I hope you find something to catch!
