Fished Silver 1/2, 1/3 & 1/5. Ice on 1/5 was 5" closer to shore and 6-7" out in middle of the lake. Perch bite has been consistent. Deeper waters ~25ft hold bigger fish. A lot of sorting to find larger fish, although nothng broke 9", some had good shoulders to 'em. Shrimpo jig with maggot or perch eye has done well for me. AM bite - tends to die down approaching noon. Took home around 30 larger fish each time, and threw back more than twice that number. Not taking home buckets (not sure I'd want to clean a bucketful, especially the really small ones I see everybody keeping). 9" is still small, but I heard that's about the size of 'em at Silver.
