  Depth is not on record here, so the bank has to tell you. Read the surface for the wind lane, then fish the edge of it. A soft bed grows weed late into autumn, which keeps fish shallow. Reported across Regional District of Central Okanagan: sockeye salmon, rainbow trout and common carp. At least one recorded species is protected in parts of its range; read the local rules before targeting anything. Silver Lake repays a walk before the first cast.
