vhf radio and fishing oswego

[ramrod98]

I am thinking of going to oswego for the first day of walleye. I saw here that a vhf radio would be good to have to hear what they are catching walleye on. any help for what type of vhf radio to buy would be appreciated. I was thinking maybe a handheld one !

Also looking for someone from the oswego rea that would be interested in maybe taking me out fishing sometime to show me the ropes and what to use for walleye,salmon, or trout. I fish oneida lake in the soring for walleye and bass. any tips would be appreciated for walleye fishing. I have a deep v 17 tracker boat equipped with a downrigger. I also have two inline planner boards and a dipsy diver. thanks in advance !

its mostly a night bite. i fished it for a couple of years and got tired of all the boat traffic (some without lights). We fished #18 rapalas with a lot of success. I would leave your inline planers at home if fishing at night, to much traffic. just long line the stick baits.
