How late can the Fall run go?

Fished lunchtime today up here with Steelhead and Doc. Lotsa micros, and I got a nice 35" fatty willing to take a needle on a slooowwww retrieve. I believe we will have fish around later than any of the past three or four years based upon the numbers still around.

There's still a lot of bait that hasn't even dropped out of the upper bay yet.

In '02 I caught bass into the 1st week of Dec.

Right now there are a ton of bass still around.Just walked in from fishing a bass blitz.Nothing big(3-8#ers) but when you get 50 or so in a row its still fun.

Thanks for the info guys. I guess I should keep my line in the water until I find no reason to. The cold weather is the only thing that may slow people down but given the "fishaholic syndrom " I sense with most of you, many sharpies will still be out in force and the fish chunking beer drinkers will be long gone.

PS. I always find that during ski season "my other passion" people stop waaay to early. In fact most places get more snow in April than February or January.
