- Species
Largemouth BassTechniqueFrogs/ToadsSeasonSummerStructureReedsThe clouds rolled in today and the Cass Bass got active. Fished windblown main lake reeds and caught some nice ones. As always, the Midnight Walker produced. Caught a bonus dogfish as well.

Largemouth BassTechniqueFrogs/ToadsSeasonSummerStructureMatted GrassHad a great day on the Cass chain. Best 5 went 23 pounds, all caught frogging and flipping. There's a ton of water out here, so be prepared to burn a lot of gas. Look for some current this time of year, as that's where the baitfish are relating with this warm weather.

Largemouth BassTechniqueFrogs/ToadsSeasonSummerStructureReedsThe fish were holding tight to thick clumps of reed patches and cane. Put the trolling motor down and present your bait to as much high percentage patches as possible for the best luck

WalleyeTechniqueLive Bait RigsSeasonSummerStructureBouldersFinding a transition point from rock to sand bottom around 16 feet of water has been producing some fish even though the bite has slowed down some. A pink or chartreuse jig and a leech is a good bait this time of year.

Largemouth BassTechniqueFrogs/ToadsSeasonSummerStructureLily PadsTook 4th in a Wednesday nighter on Cass. All the fish I weighed came on a Midnight Walker. I've always done well with that frog out here, and I'm not really sure why. Make sure to use a coarser braid (like Sufix Promix) to really cut through those pads. Any fish on the Cass chain could be a giant, so don't skimp on your gear here.

WalleyeTechniqueTrolling Mid Depth (10-19')SeasonSummerStructureLedgesPulling crank baits over ledges 8-12 feet proved to be the best way to catch walleye and Jumbo perch. Dusk or Dawn they were most active. Water Temps were down in the high 60's.
