I would personally recommend going to Rockport. There are more access points that are not as busy with summer crowds and I think the perch and trout population fared better through the low water than Echo. But if the want to try Echo go early before the crowds move in. There is a fair smallmouth bite and a few perch if the drop some crawlers on the bottom. Powerbait would like find a Planter bow.

Echo got loaded with brush and trees washed in during the Spring flood. The shore and bottom is literally paved with snags as a result, especially along the east side. Access might be tough and they'd lose a lot of gear from snags.
