Silver Lake

There are a lot of big fish in this lake. I mentioned earlier I've only fished it once and caught 3 Rainbow about 11 inches. A lot of stuff I read is written by fishermen that fish this lake by boat. A good article is the one written by Mark Wiza in the Fish Sniffer dated June 27, 2002 where Mark talks about his record 22 lb Mackinaw he caught in 2002 at ice out. I intend to fish this lake more this year and will report as I do.

Here are a couple of pictures I took the day I was there. Might make you want to take the drive even if its just for a picnic.

These were taken at Ferguson Point Picnic area in September 2007. If you plan a trip I suggest you don't do it on a holiday weekend. My wife and I tried it last Labor Day and there were so many people and dogs swimming in the lake, we just turned around and went home.

Till next time, remember: "A bad day fishing is better than any day at work".
