...every day. But, they werent trophy fish but it was fun catching a stringer everyday. Now the lake is producing the same ''hammerhandle'' pike and ''dinner'' size walleye as the past as well as many trophies of both species. I believe the bluegills that research states accidently got into the lake are providing much more feed for this lake. But the funny thing is the gills are getting big too. So i think to my self, what is the true feeder fish? Every lake has a true feeder fish that never really gets big right? Well that fish is the perch unfortunatly. Back in the 70's the lake had jumbo perch, they were hard to find, you only caught a couple but they made anything out of lake michigan look like a minnow. I did catch one jumbo though, and even that one was on the small side of a true jumbo but there still a few ''smart ones'' left i guess you could say. Echo lake has lots of stumps,logs, boulders and such so you will get stuck. If you dont get stuck then you arent fishing the lake right. As far as that is concerned that is all the tips i will give because fishing is about skill and l...
