Beautiful 0600 AM morning for some fishing.
Haven't fish Echo (King County) but a few times since I was a kid growing up there. I don't know why this little urban lake doesn't get more bass attention.... or maybe after today I do know why....

Great parking access, and easy clean shore access for float tube.
The lake has great lily pad fields, multiple down trees, and a few fishy docks.

Started out at the access, moved around the lake going North. Threw the sexiest chartruese chatter bait I had. Brand new box of 6.
Worked it pretty hard. Threw a white spinner bait as well. Trying to stay away from my "Senko habit". OK, threw the Senko as well.

Not a single bump, even from dinks. Did see two fish break the surface, prob trout.

3/4 the way around the lake, I had/had enough!
Pulled out, hit my neighborhood lake, and on the last cast got a 3 lber.

If anyone fished Echo for LMB, and you can at least speak to what is in there, I'd love to hear from you on a PM.
