Northwest Fishing Reports

Hey guys, I am going to lake washington in a couple weeks and have never been there. Was wonderin if you guys have any great info for me on catchin some smallies or largies. Thanks

Search function. Lots of great info archived back in old threads.

Right now allot of the Smallies will be shallow getting ready for Spawn,..concentrate on 5'-15' with close adjacent areas 2 deeper water,..you'll scare the Bass when you come in shallow but as you're repositioning your boat make a cast from shallow 2 deep and slow roll your bait {Spinner Bait w/a Trailor is good for this},..the Bass will be heading back in as your boat moves away and sometimes you'll get a hit while they are making there way back 2 the bed,..my last 3 Bass came off a Spinner Bait in just that manner last week,..hit the docks along the West Side of Mercer Island,..the North Docks of Mercer Slough,..another good area is North of 520 along the West Side Docks,..just past the Channel heading 2 Lake Union,..you can throw Cranks-Spinners-Chatters-Jointed Shad Raps-Swimbaits,..pretty much whatever your confidence bait is,..Bass are fairly agressive right now with the water slowly warming and Spawn nearing. You may be able 2 spot some Beds with Bass holding,..my Jig Bassin leaves a bit 2 be desired but when you spot a bed stay as far as you can and Flip 2 it,..have a good pair of Polorized Glasses,..be patient and just try 2 entice the Bass hit your bait,..if the water isn't that clear go with a White or Light colored Jig so you can see the Bass either move it or take it! Also PM BBD with any questions you might have,..he knows Lake WaWa very well! Happy Bassin!

I have never noticed the Tide affecting the Bass,..I'm sure it does but it's never had an effect on my Bassin as far as I can tell,..yea midnightshdow,..I wasn't giving my opinion 2 suggest that you're a newbie Basser,..just letting you know what has worked for me on WaWa,..you can always Google your question about the Tides on WaWa,..I just don't know!

PM BBD FOR ANY QUESTIONS .. WHAT ??? my tip is to just tie up a senko and keep casting it untill something pulls on it . Try to look for areas that hold water , the grass and beach are not holdn any fish yet just people ..If use "yellow" Marshmellows rigged on a 5 ft leader with a 1/32 once egg weight .. The slow fall will entice a bite for sure .. the buzzbait bite in 40ft of water just recently turned off but dont be afraid to turn it back on .. I have a tourney out there in a couple weeks and as you can see my pre fishing is startn to payoff .. If you have any more questions feel free to PM KZOO ! if you need me to post his cell# on here just let me know ... :batman:

That's the reason you smell so bad, I thought that was your natural body odor!
