NEW YAHOO GROUP (Better than a Bulletin Board):
Members can now share news, photos, fishing reports, recipes, etc with other
members on our new Oswegoland Fishin' Fools Yahoo Group (Big THANKS to new
member Danny Cossich for setting it up). This is for club members only; it cannot
be accessed by anyone who has not been specifically granted access.
CLICK HERE TO CHECK IT OUT!
or go to: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/oswegolandfishinfools/
Also, save the following dates for our 2008 events:
Aug. 22, 23rd & 24th - Lake Chetek, WI
Sept. 20th - The Madison Chain
Oct. 25th - Illinois River, Ottawa
Always remember, "A club is only as strong as its' weakest fool!" . . . or
something like that. The point is . . . a tree not planted bears no fruit (you may
quote me on that). Get involved. Don't be afraid to stand up and be heard.
The club officers don't want to make all of the decisions that affect what we do
as a group. So, let your voice be heard
| Update: |
| On the Horizon: |
August 4th Monthly Meeting will feature some great pointers from three of
our best; Tony Cox, Mark Corah and Mike Griffin. They will discuss "Fishing Chetek" in
preparation for our August sanctioned event.
Bring a picture of any fish you caught in July and submit it for the catch of the month
competition. Check out all of the "Fish of the Month" winners on our album page.
Bring in your crushed & bagged aluminum cans (or other scrap aluminum) to donate to
the club.
Sunday, August 10th has been set as a Float Trip (Not a Sanctioned Event).
Anyone interested should contact Tony Cox or be sure to attend the August 4th meeting
to learn more.

I would like to apologize for taking so long to update this website. My real job
and preparing for our July 5th -12th Canada trip + the trip itself, severely cut
into my available time. Thank you for being faithful. - - Mike
June 21st & 22nd was our Lake Shelbyville Event. It was a tough outing with
the lake more than 17 feet above its' normal pool. Many launches were inaccessible and
most of the "old familiar" hot spots were under water. . . somewhere. Mike Griffin
actually fished in the 9th street parking lot! Tony Cox filed this report.
Saturday, July 19th was planned as our Fox River Wading Event but, once
again Mother Nature decided otherwise. The river was running high and fast so, in the
interest of safety the planning committee members voted to postpone/cancel it for now.
We will discuss it at the August meeting.
