Hello, my fishers, fishettes, fisholescenses, and fishildren:

    Time for yet another missive from both the big "O" and the little "o". Are we all having fun yet?  From this side of the computer the answer is a resounding yes! Oneida has been the venue for both walleye and smorgasbord charters. Bass (smallmouth/largemouth), pickerel, panfish all cohabiting in 5 to 8 feet along the Delmarter Bay, and providing unlimited action on soft plastics. A veritable smorgasbord of catching. Yamasenko heavy salted plastic worms, rigged "WHACKY" style have been a solid presentation as well as tubes. Crankbaits are also holding a position in the regime.

    Jim Sollecito, Baldwinsville, NY,  world traveled angler, and NYS award winning landscaper with guests Judy Kelly, GM at WSEN, 92.1 and Joel Plumley of Plumley Engineering had non-stop action "bord" style. Here you see Jim with a pickerel, Judy with a smallmouth and Joel with a walleye. Watch the action at YouTube  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EKToE66wTOk

Now we shall take it to the big "O" where this past Sunday, June 7, Phil (deer processor/smoked meats expert) from Hamilton, NY and son Danny Roe recently graduated (engineering program) from Clarkson, ventured out on Lake Ontario at Oswego for some offshore salmon and lake trout fishing. They were not disappointed with their catch of four lakers, one king and several rainbows under 21 inches which will swim another day. Watch the action at YouTube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xz679pMXPRE. Here's Danny with his 15 lb. laker and Phil with a 14 lb. king salmon.
