Pulling 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.

Took 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.

In about 4 ft or deeper, just flipped into the darkest spots in a mixture of reeds and rice and they would typically pick it up immediately.

Was on Cass Chain for a Bass Tournament, however the Pike were very active in the shallow areas. Found good numbers of pike include some bigger ones in shallow reeds with a mix of cabbage and rice on the edge. light colored Swimbaits, spinner baits were best. Orange also worked as it was very overcast and rainy.
