Location: Racine, Wi | Haven't touched Silver in a while. I did hear a report of 1 guy popping a couple a week or two ago on bucktails near the launch, but other than that, nothing to report from here. I popped 1 fish there in late May on a minnowbait, but haven't been there in a while. Sorry I don't have more info for you. I try to stay off of that lake in the summer.
Let me know if you get out. |

Aren't you sick of being chained? Just want to try something different...i.e. quiet H2O until 10...Nice. |

Location: Crystal Lake, IL | I got her on a bucktail. She hit about 15 feet from the boat. I was working the bucktail pretty deep than raced it toward the surface. I saw the bucktail appear for a half second with a Large, white, open mouth behind it. The fish sucked my bucktail in and I hit her just as she turned. I buried 2 trebles in the corner of her mouth completely. She made a couple of runs toward open water then under the boat and broke water twice...What a sight. Praise God for giving me that opportunity. I hope to get out on Silver again in a few weeks. I'll let you know how I do.
