Silver Lake Crayfishing Restrictions? - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

Went back to Silver Lake in the middle of the week. Probably the one guy complaining was gone and there were mor than a dozen crayfish traps along the shore there. LOL.
I had caught over 3 dozen quality crayfish at Gull Lake the two nights before.
I also got one 13" brown from Rush Creek so I was able to have Trout for dinner the night before we left.
I had a good bite in a little eddie on the opposite side of the creek the first day we got there. I lost the 4 or so hooks I had to the overhanging branches the first day. I bought more hooks and set up a stinger hook on the end of the night crawler. The next day when I cast in the same spot hooked the brown on the stinger hook after 5 casts. Thank God I learned about stinger hooks from ocean fishing...
