Last Chance on Cass

[Victor Cerabone]

Today I've got the blues... 

I'm thinking about the end of season and the long cold winter.  Wondering what I've got left to fish.   Does anybody know the date for the Last Chance event on Cass Lake?

It is usually the last Sunday of October.  Benny runs the Chiller Thriller the day before on Kent.

I fished Cass today and the fishing is not that great.  12 anglers fishing for 1 fish and a 2.8 fish won.  Caught some little fish but not sure what has happened to that lake.

The lakes been off for the last couple of years
There's allot of theories
I've heard that there was a sewer drain that over flowed and that killed the bait fish
And mine would be, there a different fishing crowd. The big SM went home with a few folks

Thanks for the report Steve and Manxfishing.   Hmmm.... I always look forward to the October small bite on Cass.  Sorry to hear the fishing is tough.   I'd still like to know the official date
