I've been fishing a 1/4 mile stretch that is packed with silvers (and little to no pressure). Fishes great during high or low water. Sat morning I landed 2 back to back - one being very bright.
Earlier in the week I found a single pool (in the same 1/4 mile stretch as noted above) where I hooked 10 fish and lost them all. Too many snags! But I had fun anyway.
Once the dogs show up, they'll be packing in this strecth of water too.
One fish I hooked took me to the end of my backing in my 8wt fly rod and then broke my 12lb tippet. Yikes! (:

Some techniques/lures that worked for me:
* Vibrax spinners (solid brass #3 was the favorite). Worked best rigged up at if drift fishing - letting the lead tick on the rocks and retreiving just fast enough to avoid hanging up.
* Jigs (Beau Mac marabou, Ultra Jigs, various Silent Approach jigs) - colors: hot pink, cerise, red, black, orange, and combos of those listed. Worked best in the deep pools fished without a float and retrieved as if bass fishing. They like the rising and falling action. Just don't lift the rod tip too fast or you'll wind up snagging them.
* Fly fishing - Marabous, boss, popcicle (same colors as those noted for jigs). In fast water, try dead drifting or swinging. In slow water, try a weighted fly/floating line combo. Cast out, wait several seconds, strip 6 to 12 inches, wait several seconds, etc. Again, the rising and falling action gets them.

Anyway, this was my first year fising for silvers and I learned a lot. Thanks to those who have shared their tips on this board!
