Lake Silverwood 04/01

7am-5pm. And you must wait on the shoulder of 138 for the gates to open and not directly behind the gate or else they'll ticket you. Also, make sure your kayak is dry. Sit-on-top is questionable on that lake--someone please confirm.

Sit on tops are 100% ok at the wood. This is my home lake, I fish it at least 3 times a month on my yak. Water temps have been low so not much striper lately. It can kick off at any time. I'll post more on rigging once I get home from work.

also going in threw the gate is only for people that want to park in the parking lot I fish where you dont have to pay for parking and less of a paddle/peddle to where we will be going

Do you get your yak inspected at the gate then travel to your launching point?

Yakin, What do you mean by "inspected"? Who inspects the yaks out there? Is there something that the yaks should be outfitted with specifically for this lake/ are there rules along those lines for yaks? I tried looking that info up but I couldnt find anything.

I should be getting my new Stealth 12 from OEX at the end of next week and plan on striper fishing this lake the following week during the week (weekdays).

They just want to see that its dry, make sure there is no moisture on the inside. Other than that, never had a problem at silverwood great lake to fish. Wind does come up around 11 most days!

The just check to see if everything you bring on your yak like your PDF seat and even the hull of your yak is dry and has no intruders on the outside or inside from a contaminated lake is all
if you go try not to bring a trailer because then you will have to sit in the boat like for inspection
uf you have it ontop of a car or in the bed of a truck or on a lader rack you can just drive into the car line it is a lot quicker just make sure to get there kind of early the line can sometimes be long and I herd spring break starts this weekend also

Yeah I was going to be there regardless. Heads up unless you do quite a hike with your yak all entry points are closed other than the main entrance. It's worth it to just pay the $10 and back up to the water.
