Dont know about the Osage but on the Grand we caught our bigger fish on cedars with lots of limbs.The hardwood trees produced fish but not as many and not as
big. Depth was a big factor also,the majority of our fish came from 9-13 fow fishing to the bottom and some would grab it on the way down but most were right off
the bottom. Hope this helps and good luck.
There will be days when the fishing is better than one's most optimistic forecast, others when it is far worse. Either is a gain over just staying home.
