Oswego, dunes fishing7/24-7/26


Recommended Posts

Just back from another fun / frustrating fishing trip, arrived at camp7/24 at 3pm, left the dock at 4 searching for Kings, had some good intel so powered up the Breaktime and cruised 8 miles to Oswego set up on north troll in 150 fow had first line a rigger down 70ft with standard green echip trolling ultra green glow fly start ripping before we hit 200 fow. Ran a spread of rigger's wire dippy's and two copper's a 350 and a 400. Wound up with a 5 for 7 trip 3 nice adult kings, an atlantic 30 inches down 114 was biggest surprise beautiful fish, that was on a dolphin echip dragging a big weenie fly.

    Sat morning left dock at 5:30 and went due north to Salmon River area in 150 kept trolling north had fish on before I even deployed the copper's guys lost a couple due to inexperience with flea's etc, so did some coaching and landed a nice one off green edge spinny with white halo fly once I demonstrated how to slap the rod on water before the fleas become buried in the eye's of rod they did better. Ended up with 4 for 8, no copper bites, and no dippy bites riggers down 100-130 were good that's with 13lb swim darter's, best speed was around 2.2-2.5.

   Sunday morning went lone wolf finally nice fish on mag dippy back 250 UV green mag setting 3 with chartreuse spinny trolling sweet pea fly, can't recommend that fly enough Kings like the plain ones and the glow. The NBK paddle with green fly also worked consistently on all of my trips this weekend. Landing big Kings solo is a rush, after clearing corner rigger got a 20lb silvery hen into the net handlining her in. After that a couple of skipper's that got released and dropped one off center rigger down 91 trolling a pig pen paddle and sweet pea fly. Went out again Sunday evening with Dapper Dan on his luxury boat had steelhead action on 10 color and 250 copper, off the boards one had a dolphin spoon the other jawbreaker. Caught a few juvenile kings 4-8 lbs.

    Overall weather was great, didn't lose any tackle, put fish in the boat, lake was flat, the fog on Sunday morning rolled in and was impressive, really thought rods would keep firing, probably should have went to all glows. Congrats to all the guys who cashed in, especially Logan who won the youth division with a 25 lb King he caught with Papa Tim aka Dapper Dan. Hope this helps!!!!!!!!!! Breaktime
