Lake Silverwood - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

I have been fishing silverwood for 6 years now.

I park at pilot rock do the 2 mile hike into miller canyon =)

When trout are running, that area where the fresh water is spilling off the hills produces best.

They built a new a metal dock and swim area in miller canyon, little bluegill and (i think croppies?) hang out here and bite little rubber jigs.

Cat fish bite in the summer (year round is rumor); once again miller canyon is extremely productive. – Saw a 12 lb kitty caught on frozen chovies last week -

Silverwood is known for its stripper, anyone that debuts there size can stop by my hardware store in SB.... 36lbs>>

The spillway is known to have fish; however it is illegal to fish inside the fence. And the biggest strippers have been caught near the damn. All the fish I know of were caught on live bait, however it is illegal to fish with live bait in CA, so don’t get caught!
