The three Osberg Fishing Tournament team members each caught fish last Saturday at the Camp Confidence Classic on Gull Lake. We went to the same `hot spot’ as last year, but this year Rock Bass was not allowed for the `mixed bag’ category and we could not catch a walleye. It is very likely that had we been able to catch a walleye, we would have placed. We ended up turning in 3 largemouth bass, but their total weight was less than 6 pounds.

The highlight for Papa Gary was seeing Walleye Willie, age 8, featured by the Camp Confidence’s Jeff Olson in a side bet. This is Willie’s second tournament and he did win the side bet. The prize was Jeff Olson’s favorite fishing cap. We have now decided that this is a “must attend” event. Tradition is big in the Osberg family.
