Well, there are fish in silver lake. Stopped by on my way to whererever I was going. Baited up, and as soon as I got there wind was winding and rain started raining. First cast, before it had a chance to soak rod took off with a nice big triploid. Ran about 21 inches on 4 pound test, but it was PLUMP like a grilled stuffed burrito. Caught it, rebaited and threw it out. By this time the wind got windier so I cleaned my fish and decided it was time to move on. Silver lake gets windy! Rain is okay with me, but with the wind, miserable. All in all, a very productive ten minute trip. As long as you can tell the difference between the wind and a fish, I think the odds are in your favor.

I was tempted to go to Silver Lake today but noooo I decided to go to Ballinger instead. I'm the opposite of you in regards to wind... if its coming from my back I'm ok... face not so. Rain... ewww but if I catch a big fish I'm stuck. The winds at Ballinger were nasty... even the bald eagles were anchoring themselves to the trees.

I don't think there is a launch at Silver. I park in the lot and assemble a Portabote and roll it down to the water. Does anyone else know of a real launch on Silver?

Ok. Yeah, I figured there wasn't one. The amount of fish they put in was something that I wanted to try. Sounds like a nice lake. Just wish they had a launch.

Back in the days of the April opener, we used to take our boys (they're now in their 30's) to Silver. We launched on the east side by the tavern that was "arsoned" a while back. Don't know if that area is still available or not.

Yeah heard they stocked it 3/21 with 4000 fish. I haven't tried it I live right by there but sadly no boat lauunch. You can go to the park by emory's and if you have a buddy can launch a small boat. You have to haul it a ways. Not exactly easy for one person.
