December 18, 2007 | Leave a Comment
Oscoda on the Lake Huron shoreline is a fishing destination not to be missed. It is well known for a range of catches such as lake trout, brown trout, steelhead, pike and salmon.
If the fishing season for your favorite fish is around the corner, you wouldn’t want to delay planning to make the best of your time in Oscoda.
Many fishing enthusiasts make use of the services of experienced Oscoda charter companies. This makes for fishing in real comfortable style!
Some of the craft available from local Oscada companies with decades of experience will include air conditioners and heated cabins with private restroom and wash facilities.
At peak fishing times, it is best to contact the captain of your preferred charter boat in advance to avoid disappointment!
Whether you plan to use your own boat, make use of a charter or simply intend to fish off the pier, you will find Oscada a welcoming community.
In fact, the locals will tell you that some of the best catches have in the past been made right off the pier at the mouth of that great local river, the AuSable!
An option for fishing in the Oscada area is to take River Road to Cooke Dam, with the AuSable River very close by and great fishing of walleye, bass and pike at the Dam.
If you’re staying over at an Oscoda resort, or one of the lodges and guest houses along the AuSable River, you will find that many have river dockage available, with easy access to the AuSable and Lake Huron.
However, before you hit the road for, don’t forget the required Fishing License and Trout Stamp! These licences can be purchased at many of the sporting goods stores in the area, and some Oscada fishing charter services sell daily licenses.

Fly Fishing Accessories Hanging Stuff Around Your Chest
December 16, 2007 | Leave a Comment
If you are going fly fishing, you need to have your critical gear with you while wading and casting. One of the critical pieces of equipment is your vest.
Construction workers have tool belts to hold everything they need while working. Fly fishing anglers have the same thing in the vest. They hold your tools of the fly fishing trade. Without them, you will be endlessly hunting for flies, repellant, grapplers and so on.
This necessary fly fishing clothing comes in a variety of styles. Old school vests are the best in my opinion. They fit and look like regular clothing vests, but are made with mesh pockets and water proofing material. I find they are perfect for holding the necessary fly fishing gear. They are also good because the distribute the weight of your junk err, gear across your shoulders and back. Any fly fishing gear shop should have them.
Being a consumer society, more than a few companies have come up with advancements in ways to carry around your gear. Typically, they come in the form of modular systems hanging over the shoulder. They look like travel fannypacks hanging off the front of each shoulder. Depending on the brand, they may have a rear or front fanny pack and even both. Some anglers love these more modern gear accessories. Personally, I find them ungainly and annoying, but to each their own. I strongly suggest you fit yourself with one of these new systems before committing to buy them.
When considering how you will hold your stuff, you should give a good bit of thought to what you want it to hold. Personally, I want mine to hold sunscreen for my bald head, insect repellent, clippers, forceps, a poncho for rain, my car keys, line and, of course, flies. I don’t like hauling my stuff up and down the shore, so I tend to load up like a Sherpa. You might prefer a less demanding approach. The point is to figure out what is best for you and then buy a version that meets your needs.
If you are going to get serious about angling, you will need to a way to lug your stuff around with you. Figure out what you want to put in yours and then make your selection.
