New York City is a place known for its bustling streets, diverse culture, and vibrant nightlife. When you picture the city chances are skyscrapers, concrete, and crowded streets come to mind. But what if beneath all the manmade architecture exists a connection with nature? That is exactly what Ranga Perera set out to find. In the finale of Flavor on the Fly, a Flylords original series, Ranga explores New York City through fishing, food, and community. What he finds just might surprise you.
Whether fishing in Central Park or exploring the bays around New York with 737s overhead, opportunity is abundant. Ranga dives head first into New York, intrigued by the juxtaposition of a bustling city and its abundant natural resources. He fishes for carp in Central Park, explores local trout streams, and chases blitzing bluefish in Jamaica Bay. To wrap up his time in New York Ranga joined author, chef, and angler Peter Kaminksy. Together they shopped New York’s markets, incorporating local ingredients with freshly caught bluefish in a mouth-watering display of culinary expertise. So tune in to see all that the city that never sleeps has to offer.
Thank you to Ranga Perera and our incredible sponsors for making this possible.
