Oswego River - Steelhead
« on: Oct 10, 2022, 07:02 PM »
Hello All,
Looking to take a trip out to the Oswego River in a couple weeks (11/12) to try for some steelhead using beads under a float
I am looking for any local bead makers and recommendations on size and color.

Trying to buy local and avoid big chains.

Thanks

Not sure if they are open or not….try Larry’s Salmon Shop in Oswego.

Not sure if this applies on the Oswego River, but it should.

Here is what Shane (Snagger) posted earlier on FB regarding the Salmon River -

"I got a bad feeling the DEC fucked something up 3 years ago with Steelhead stockings   Its now October 9th and I've yet to see a Steelhead come threw my fillet Station. None, not one fish.  Its never happened before.  Buckle up because it feels like somethings wrong."


Go over and read the responses.
A lot of them back his feeling, of course, some don't.

after the prior two years of awesome steelhead fishing in the lake in the eastern basin,this year was terrible.might have boated 4-5 steelhead all year,so i would expect to see the same results in the rivers.any of the tackle shops in pulsaki should be able to hook you up with anything you need to fish the rivers.

create an account.
it's simple
and if you don't want to be bothered, turn on/off the appropriate privacy settings

There is a huge amount of useful (and entertaining) info on FB.
Just like the WWW, use and view what you want and scroll past the stuff you don't want.

(like here on MFF too - lol)

After 30+ years  I’ve lost the flavor for chasing salmon and steelhead  ,  I’m friends with a few guides ,I can pass along info   , far as oswego river trapp fishes it often
 Plus there are guys on here that still give chase

Curious how one year can have such a drastic impact on the steelhead populations.  I think some years are better than other but I highly doubt this will be as bad a year for as some are saying.  It is awfully early for steelhead season and perhaps the drought conditions for most of the year has delayed their entrance into the river.  I'll be up that way the weekend before Thanksgiving but right now is really the transition time where salmon is slowing down and more steelhead should start to enter the river.  Never fished Oswego so can't really comment on that fishery specifically.

 I have a few drift boat buds that guide , I’ll pass along what I hear on the salmon river  , plus there are guys on here that fish up my way , I’m sure they will make reports , after 35 + years s chasing after them and salmon I’ve lost that big urge , now it might be a time or 2 a season
 Far as oswego trapp,  spends time there

Freddie, does the warmer water temps, in the lake, delay them from coming up river sooner? I know they like cooler water temps.
