It was on one of the NY finger lakes.
My dad was a WWII Navy vet and he demonstrated this strange means of row boat propulsion. He took one of the oars out and moved it back and forth out the boat stern. Don't remember what we were trolling; but we had a small perch hooked when we got back to shore.
Thanks for making me remember.
