Governor Cuomo Shines Spotlight on NYS Fishing Industry

New York's finest fishing waters from Long Island to the Thousand Islands are featured in a tourism ad unveiled by Gov. Andrew Cuomo over the weekend. It was one of a series of tourism promotional events held by Cuomo around the state, which have included snowmobiling in Tug Hill and whitewater rafting in the Adirondacks. Cuomo's office says fishing generates $1.8 billion for New York's economy and employs 17,000 people.
