Lake Washington bass fishing

Come along with us as we fish one of our favorite lakes, Lake Washington.
We catch some big largemouth bass and smallmouth bass for a great mixed bag. Stay tuned in for the new Tackle tip Section of the video about 3/4's of the way in. We are going to add this new Tackle Tip section to each one of our videos coming out to help break up the monotony of a strictly fishing video. It will also give us a chance to show you guys what we are using that day and give you some pointers on how we fish it!

Nice vídeo guys. I'll be near to that lake next weeks and i don't have idea of fishing spots. Is there any spot for shore fishing in airport side? Thanks

[@bassnquack270]

Gene Coulon park has quite a bit of shore access. I dont know how good the shore fishing will be this time of year.

[@timmydavidsmith]

Have you ever fished Lake Washington I’m the summer? I’m wondering how the baits and technique would differ for summer fishing

[@bassnquack270]

Yes definitely fish there alot in the summertime. I like to fish shallow some in the summer especially in the morning then i will head out deeper outside the weeds in 18-22 ft. of water. Wherever the weeds stop growing. look for schools of perch on your sonar and there will probably be some bass close by.

[@nickkiel12234]

Hey guys love the video, Seattle Native and know Lake Wa really well. Haven't fished it yet for bass. Seems like you guys had solid spots. Were you fishing over the East side of the lake? Bellevue side? And you guys try or carolina or grub rigs or just smashing them with the spinner. appreciate it fellas, Hit that sub button

[@bassnquack270]

Thanks for the support! we mostly fish north of 520. We do well with soft plastics, but earlier in the year we seem to do well with a spinnerbait everywhere we fish.

I thought this was Lake Washington in Mississippi here lol 😆 I'm smokin B! Ok great video

[@travisarcher5101]

Now I know where you catch your green! Lol I'm kidding

[@bassnquack270]

you know they are nomads out there!!

[@byronargueta3331]

Nice video guys. Where is a good spot to fish for pre spawn on lake Washington, say a day like this one ? I just got a boat and want to try to go out to lake Washington

[@bassnquack270]

First I would look at water temperature. If you can find a cove that is even 1 or 2 degrees warmer than the others I would start there. I have found pre spawn fish in pretty much every cove on the lake. Look around in some of the coves for a harder bottom of sand and smaller rock. Also earlier in the prespawn look on your navionics or contour map and look for shallow spots closer to deep water. It will change from day to day. on warmer days they may be up roaming around a little bit and when we get crappy weather coming in they can quickly access the deeper water close by.

@@bassnquack270 wow those r some great tips man. I cant wait to go out there and rip some lips. We should hit it together one day

[@byronargueta3331]

Going out this Saturday. What temp would you say they start to move into prespawn mode. It's been kinda sunny this week. What would be something tou would focus on if you were going out this weekend ?

[@bassnquack270]

@@byronargueta3331 we had a tournament yesterday and there was a tournament last weekend. there was alot of largemouth caught. id say most were probably in less than 20 feet. All our fish were in less than 10. Id say its on like donkey kong from here on out.

[@byronargueta3331]

@@bassnquack270 great tips man. I really appreciate it. I definitely didnt try that shallow but will my next outing there. .what club are u from?

[@hunteryetman8470]

What types of spinners were you using? Great video!

[@hunteryetman8470]

Never mind, you answered it at the end!

[@bassnquack270]

@@hunteryetman8470 my go to spinner baits are usually 1/2 ounce. The brands i use the most are Mr. B lure company, Johnsons, Strike King, and War Eagle.

Where were you guys fishing

[@bassnquack270]

mostly around The Yarrow point area

[@boacrew4949]

How do you know what fish you can keep?

[@run6run751]

it's all catch and release. Technically you can keep bass but they're sport fish.

[@bassnquack270]

We never keep Bass. They arent much good to eat anyways. if your looking for good eating fish I would try to target perch or crappie.

[@80millionvotesmy89]

Lake Washington what time of year was this when you guys were fishing this video. I'm just trying to figure out when bass actually starts spawning on lake Washington especially this year. I'm used to fishing ponds but I want to go fish lake Washington this year during the spawn

[@bassnquack270]

This was Mid May. I cant say for sure when the spawn will be because i think it varies year to year. A broad range I would say could start beginning of May through mid June. They wont all spawn at once. It will be in waves some earlier and some later. In my experience the smallies are earlier and the largies are later.
