The ice on Silver Lake is starting to breakup...
 

It looks like the ice on Silver Lake is starting to break-up and the snow has melted enough to see the rental boats...:luxhello:

I will be there for the trout opener later this month. First time going in April. For the past few years Ive been going in summer.

I still have the usual 10 day July trip planned. But I wanted to check out the scenery earlier in the year. I know I'll be cold!:doh:

Btw, anyone is welcome to come by to my campsite. I am probably going by myself and have a lake front campsite.

WON tournament is going on, recently no big fish has come out of silver lake but for $20 I dont mind entering the tournament.

Beto what dates are you going..i might be interested in meeting up with you.

For the opener. I will probably get there right at check in time and on Sunday I will most likely fish the morning, then have breakfast and check out but fish some more before heading back down. Im not taking my family since it will be too cold for my little ones at night. So there will be room at the site.

Site #23
Arrival Date: Fri Apr 28 2017

For 4th of July I have site #24, #23 at silver lake. Then im heading to Mammoth.
I might need just one though so someone can get the other and do their own thing. Dunno yet, need to check with my friends. Everyone is always so excited to go but dont actually commit lol so instead of cancelling I would rather hook up a bwe member

Got it I'll let you know by next Monday if I'm able to make it this month....thank you

No rush. I am going for sure so you can let me know up to night before just to confirm what time I will be there.

From the cam and this pic taken on the 2nd, it looks like its clearing up from the north end first but should be fully thawed in 3 weeks.

Yup, beautiful it is!

Right now the lake is glassy with just 4mph wind. I hope for the best on opening weekend
