About Lake Washington

Set in Rhode Island, United States, Lake Washington is a lake that holds the typical mix of warm-water and cool-water species you'd expect for the area. Anglers fishing Lake Washington usually focus their effort on transitions: the edges of weed beds, points that stick out into deeper water, and the shaded sides of any inflow. Early morning and the last hour of light tend to be the most productive windows on a body of water this size.

Fishing Techniques

• For Largemouth bass

  Vary your retrieve speed and lure presentation until you find what the bass are keying on, as their preferences can change daily based on weather and water conditions.

• For Chain pickerel

  Use a wire leader to prevent bite-offs due to pickerel's sharp teeth, and vary your retrieve speed until you find what they're hitting.

• For Bluegill

  Fish near structure like docks, weeds, or submerged trees where bluegill seek cover and food.
