Silver Lake past Perth ?

This is where it's all going on. One can ask for advice or general information or simply chew the fat about fishing tackle, tips, and locations.

Silver Lake past Perth ?

Post by madog99 »

Seeing as trout is ferme (closed) in Quebec and having picked up a new rigger last weekend I am itching to try it out . Silver Lake out on #7 is open all year so was figuring to spring for a day pass in Ont and give it a go . Would be a bonus to actually catch something and as it only 1 day of catch and release don't want to waste too much time exploring for the general area where lakers may or not be found . I see a boat launch right off the hwy so I guess that's where we would put in . So just a general idea would be fine , "go left , go right etc " not looking for exact directions just a hint as a day goes by fast . Also might there be the odd pike to be found in that lake ?

thanks in advance

John

The lake is not very big; it shouldn't take you very long to mark some. Straight out from the launch (ok slightly to the right around the island) is about the deepest part, I think 90 feet is it. There is some nice structure west of the launch beside the highway, not sure if they are in 'shallow' (50 ft) or not though. It think your best bet is to go to the center (right of island) and follow the far shore heading west, work 70 ft or more.

As the saying goes....Go west young man go west. Which I think is to the left from the launch. That whole left side of the lake is good. There is also bass and might be pike but never caught any.
