Went out to Luther Burbank Park on the north side of Mercer Island last night about 6:30pm. Lots of people on the docks and the water was consistently choppy from boats running inner tubes back and fourth a little further out. Tried fishing around a fallen tree sticking out of the water back towards shore, but no luck. Tried various spinners and crankbaits I had with me and got some taps, but no solid bites for about an hour and a half. Swapped gear out to see if I could get into any trout for the last hour or so. Lots more action on the Power Bait, but still no solid bites. Saw someone else land a fish on my way out. Looks like it was about a 4" perch, which I'm assuming is what was eating my bait. Still a great night to be out on the water. Any advice from anyone familiar with the area would be greatly appreciated. Going to try going back out this evening if possible.

Try your lures in the early morning, when the boats aren't out. In the evening, for bass, try jigs or finesse worms. It's hit or miss on a docks for bass. They're there, or they aren't.
