I used to get stuff at 'The Sports Authority' in Queens. Its a general sports shop but carries an extensive range of fishing gear.

Capitol Fishing on 36th and Broadway is probably the handiest, its only two or three blocks from Macy's so you won't have to go too far.

Try capitol on west 36th,good value in reels 'braid and lures,your other option is to order the stuff mail order from Cabelas or one of the other mail order companies and have it delivered to your hotel or wherever your staying a few days prior to your arrival.

Dropped into capitol, picked up a shimano 5000 fi+ various hard and soft lures. They don't do AVET reels any more :( . I'll try and pick one up around MA (eg Boston) or NH etc
