bigugli Posted May 23, 2016 Report Posted May 23, 2016 Finished from market, 10:30 Sat night, and had the family, gandkids included, all packed up and on the road by 2am for the 4 hour road trip to Windsor. It was a very long and busy day.. Over the course of the day, we would catch smallies, walleye, and, the target of the day, silvers. Made several donations to the river gods on the rocks, but the fishing was great for every one except the daughter's fiance. Guess he'll be on pink glove duty for the next little while. Pity we had to go home the same day .
misfish Posted May 23, 2016 Report Posted May 23, 2016 (edited) Hard core earlly birds. Nice. Been hearing the bite was slow,but you guys seemed to have got into them. Nice. How do you compare the silvers to other fish, as for eating Bruce? Edited May 23, 2016 by Brian B
Freshtrax Posted May 24, 2016 Report Posted May 24, 2016 Nice going great way to spend time with the family

How do you compare the silvers to other fish, as for eating Bruce? Temperate bases definitely have a different taste. Somewhat stronger than perch/walleye. Key to mellowing out the flavour is the same for cats. Bleed them, cut out the blood line, soak in milk. The bite was not super fantastic, but the fish were there. Even better, no white perch, and all bigger fish.
Old Ironmaker Posted May 24, 2016 Report Posted May 24, 2016 Silvers are best day 1 or 2. After that they really get gamey even if frozen from fresh.
