Silver lake can be a little tough to fish at first, but the lake has turned out some big fish for me, along with its other two small ponds that are a blast to fish. Especially the catch and release one. Always has big bass that you can catch almost daily. Been fishing at Black well first preserve for almost 7 years and there is a reason I keep coming back
lots of shore line to fish catch and release lake plenty of parking free not sure but I think you can launch canoe and yaks I have caught carp, Bass, Crappie and northern lake pretty clean park district lake Good luck to all of you who fish there fish on my Fishbrain brothers and sisters fish on 👍👍
