Looks like my scouting trip for tomorrow has been cancelled. Both my kids are down with Strep throat so I'll be home with them tomorrow....
sure seems like your kids, or your wife, or you get sick a lot..... :( :D
Ain't that the truth! It seems someone is alwasy sick around here :( If my wife wasn't pregnant again I might go by myself but I'm hoping if I take care of the boys she'll not get it. She already has morning sickness all day long, I'd hate to see strep on top of that....Quote:

sounds good I may be fetting there friday night or i might be getting there real early sat moring, I will be bringing some like pans and stoves and stuff for cooking some craps!
now that we're talking about cooking up crappie..... we better catch some to cook!!!!
if it is anything like the last time that I was there we will be catching some, I am going to be putting some effort into the bass down there as well.
I plan on being down there about 5 or 6 Sat. morning. Does anybody know what time the resort and or park allow you to launch? I'm really hoping the bites on also, my freezer isn't looking so good right now.
the resort opens at 8:00 AM.
Does that mean you can't launch till 8am
not sure, the state launch may be open at 7. i will give a quick check..

Silver Lake boat ramp closed to trailer use
VANCOUVER--The Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife boat ramp at Silver Lake in Cowlitz County has been closed for launching boats on trailers.
The ramp was closed for safety reasons since the recent breach in the lake's dam occurred.
The access site's parking lot remains open and canoes, car-top boats and other smaller vessels still can be launched at the site.
The ramp closure for trailers likely will remain in effect through the summer.
- Cajun looks like it....
koke, that was 7 years ago.
hahaha oh man I need sleep good catch!
I was sure they fixed it since May of 1999. I'm gonna still get there around 5 or 6. If I can't launch then i'll sleep till I can.
I plan on getting there at about 730 because it is not going to get light till then or later.
Ck I am going to brin a big container of crawlers, the lake is full of cats though not large they are a lot of fun and if you have a lantern, bring it the crappie will school up around the dock at the resort...
not sure if i have a lantern. i'll see what i can do...... ;)
Hey exbass any tips on what to use on the bass so I can make sure that I am stocked up.
yeah, any last minute tips on anything about the lake would be great! :D
I have had some great luck on Bandit cranks, Senkos and hoola grubs on a jig hook! The big thing this time of year is cover lots of water (run & gun). If you start sticking some fish then S L O W down and get all of then in that area. I'm not saying fish fast, I am saying fish even slower if you are in a location with bass!!!!! Some good spots are: Waldon island, Timber point, hemlock creek, West pilings, Roger's rocks (early), Costalota, Down by the road (grave yard area) and docks. One big key for the crappie is Fish a SMALL Styrofoam bobber with the jig about 18 inches below the bobber. If you would like getting right next to the brush try tying a one inch square from a Styrofoam coffee cup as your float. Why I do this the Styrofoam does not orbit the crappie jig on the cast, it acts like a parachute and makes casting accurately much easier. also you can adjust the Styrofoam so it barely floats and you will catch more crappie this way cuz they just pull the Styrofoam under water and they do not know you have them! Styrofoam over plastic bobbers cuz of casting accurately!
how about spinnerbaits, do they produce much?
I use them around shallow rocks they work better than cranks in that situation.
are you going to point me to these areas?:D
i don't think he can name anymore spots then he already has :D
got all my rods rigged and ready to go for the morning. can't wait!
Same here got all my rods rigged as well see you there.
Has every one got my GREAT silver lake Bass and crappie map????
It's a must have!!!
I would not have to tell you about all the good spots you would have a map that showwed you the exact spots!!!! Email me and I will email one back to you!!! [email protected]
