Hello,
What are some lakes in or around Seattle that have panfish? Looking for Bluegill/Crappie mostly. I've already been to Larsen Lake in Bellevue. I heard Lake Washington has panfish, but I don't know which areas.
Panfish in or around Seattle?

Re: Panfish in or around Seattle?
If you are including yellow perch in panfish, Lake Washington and Lake Sammamish are full of them. Seward Park, Kenmore, East Channel, and others on Lake Wa. I'm pretty sure there's an article on the site about Lake Wa perch.
Washington, Lake Union, and the ship canal are supposed to have crappie but I've never fished them.
You can use the fishing reports and select lake and species to pull up reports specific to what you are looking at. Its pretty slick.

I have caught crappie over by the Newport Marina area. Sunfish and perch can be found anywhere in Lake WA weedy shallows once the water warms, July-Sept. For me, the perch seem to be asleep in the Spring.
