Oswego 4th of July and week following!

For us, the fishing was slow. Most fish came 100' and below. Most fish came in 285/325 FOW. Hot lures,,,,,SSW and DieHard. Dipsey was green E-chip and the hammer fly. 330' back, #3 setting. Had a great time. Brought a fellow out for his very first time and within 20 minutes hooked up with this 13 1/2 pound steelhead. It came on the dipsey. He was as happy as could be.

My wife, God bless her, did a fine job driving the boat, netting fish, AND catching her own dish.

We were out when a rigger fired and the SSW did it's stuff. She had her belt on ready for the fight, but I shed a tear or two and she felt sorry for me and let me boat this nice one. 25 lbs.+

And the story wouldn't be complete without a picture of the fishing machine.

I had the opportunity to meet (VERY briefly) Muskeybob. We were on the way out and just not enough time to visit. Maybe next time.
