I was at silver this Sat. every one was fishing for the small main lake crappie. If I was going to silver I would not go for two more weeks. The crappie have not moved into the canals in big numbers YET. I would focus on the new moon! Also Watch out of the cops they are fishing for crappie and If you keep one under 9 inches or if you keep over 10 crappie a day they WILL stop acting like they are fishing and give you a BIG ticket! I hear tickets are going fast at silver lake!

To land one of my crappie i need a gaff and a .22 pistal :D
Docks and rocks worked for almost everyone and the top lures: Senko, Bandit crank bait and top water lures. Fish early the fog can clam down at first light and then good luck finding your fishing spots! Just do a LOT of run & gun. The more spots you hit the more bass (and bigger) you will get. One person in our group lost a bass over 5 pounds under 9 pound dock. The island was hot this weekend! Loat of bass got caught at silver this weekend.
Good luck!
Thanks

The island was the only place we could consistantly find action for bass at silver (although we were fishing inthe middle of the day) - we hit em up with everything though, lizards, ikas, senkos, hulas, grubs, cuttails - pretty much everything seemed to work.
thanks guys I will get my gear going...
