5/9 Silverwood - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

Iceman · 05-10-2013, 09:29 PM

Fished Silverwood Lake for the first time on Thursday with Landwhale. We got there just after 6 am behind a hand full of boaters. We had high hopes of stripers, but never found one to bite. I only saw one boil all day. I did see a few LMB boil and one BIG one distracted me for a while as it boiled twice and looked double digit, just could not get it to go.Talked to one boater that said they had 3 limits and then watched him hook up trolling an Alabama rig. We tried everything from plugs to rubber to iron por nada. Killer morning and really pretty lake. We worked the shoreline back and finally got the skunk off on the blade. I will be back, $10 per vehicle and a very laid back inspection for mussels. Very scenic with tons of structure to toss at. Always love to fish a new spot, great adventure.
