Some guy named Mike Lohn with a Bullet Boat won with Brad. 12.8 think. They had a nice bag of largemouth.  Second was Jim Clauser and John Robidek.  Third was Scott Dobson and Kyle Green.  Steve Smith ( me ) and Doug Ratliff got fourth place money.   Doug Ratliff had big bass. A 4.1 smallmouth.

Best part of the day was 3-4 years ago Dough hooked a Big smallmouth.  I missed it with the net, it broke off.  He caught this one in almost exactly the same spot.   I was redeemed.

Yep    Funny I have thought about that fish every time I have fished Cass since then.  No I will think about Doug catching him when I go there.   :)

Always nice to hear a good fishing story... probably the SAME fish!! Haven't been to Cass in a while but it seemed like some of those fish live in the same place all or most of the year.

Sounds like the same people are catching the best bass every fall now... someone needs to get in there and shake things up a little maybe...?

Good luck is good luck. (But I also believe you can MAKE your own good luck in tournament fishing...)
