Hi all; I live here in mo. and wife are planning a fishing trip to cass lake the last week in may and the first week in june and was wondering if any of you have fish cass and just any general info on what to take. thanks

Cass lake is a beautiful lake that is crystal clear. The lake in my opinion has gone from a day bite lake to a night bite lake. If we have a normal spring you should be able to find fish during the daylight hours. I mostly always use lindy rigs and leeches. At night I troll Rapalas's and kill them. Hope it helps.

I fish Cass a couple times a summer and my good friend fishes it at least once a month. The times you are going the river mouths produce lots of fish. That is where most of the crowds will be as well.

I agree-night time is best. Be SURE to be on the water 2 hours before sundown. We take 90% of our fish within a one hour timespan.

When we first fished the lake, we hired a guide name Cam. He was pretty good. Lots of experience for eyes and musky on Cass. That was about 5 years ago-but I am sure that he is still guiding there.

Hey, fellow Show-Me guy, be sure to try the edges of the reefs on the north side of the Potato Islands in Allen's Bay during the morning hours. Floating jig/leech has gotten me a lot of nice early-season fish there over the years. Also, the l-o-o-o-n-g points off Star Island are great for evening casting--keep your boat over 20-30 feet of water and follow the contour, pulling diving cranks off the top and sides of the shallow bar. Awesome lake system--good luck!
