SILVER LAKE STATUS REPORT SUMMARY

LARGEMOUTH BASS: SILVER LAKE The 2002 fall survey shows an increase in bass numbers from the previous survey. Thirty seven bass per hour were collected as compared to 23 bass per hour in the 2000 fall survey. Few large fish were collected, with only 5 % greater than 15 inches in length. However, this increase in smaller fish may indicate improved reproduction and recruitment of bass in this lake. Hopefully this will result in continued improvement in the bass population and size structure in the coming years. The angling prospects would have to be rated as fair at this time. There is a 25 HP motor limit and statewide sportfishing regulations apply.
