Hey all, visiting the Traverse City area in July and am staying on Silver Lake. Anybody have any experience fishing this lake? Not looking for people to give up their spots or anything, just general info on patterns. I'm fairly confident I'll be able to locate fish, but surprisingly can't find much info out there. I would've booked a place on a more well regarded body of water but we needed a place to sleep 10 people and this is where we ended up.

I had looked at a few maps but hadn't seen this one yet, I'll print a copy and have my graphics guy at work enhance/laminate it. Thank you! We are staying in the circular bay on the southeast portion of the lake, seems there is a lot of vegetation there so I'll prob pack a frog rod along 

Hi Evil,

 Did you have any luck?  I'm heading up to the same south east location on silver and wondering if you had any success and wouldn't mind sharing any information.  I've been searching online and stumbled across this post because i also didn't find much info out there.
