Bays and points beat straight shoreline every time on water like this. Fish documented in Frontenac County include pumpkinseed, bluegill, rock bass, smallmouth bass and yellow perch. Records at county level tell you what is around, not what is stocked here. Fish Silvers Lake where the bottom changes rather than where it looks deep.
