Nice! I was there last Sunday, a few days after that Brown Trout stocking and it was dead. I didn’t see one Trout pulled out of there. Nobody was catching any. I fished Miller Cyn and all over Cleghorn. I threw everything at em but to no avail! I think they were spooked and hadn’t settled in yet or they were maybe down deep. I’m going to try again tomorrow, so we’ll see!
Thanks for the trip down memory lane. The rock quarry is where they got the rock for the dam. I was fortunate enough to have fished here from the time it opened till 1987.
Edward Simpson back in the eighties they had 50 lb stripers coming out of Silverwood not So Much Anymore
Thank you for the detailed information for this lake. Best info. Going there today for the first time. Definitely not parking by the dam lol
Nicely done buddy! I miss the days when Miller Creek had trout up high in the creek.
Huck Outdoors yeah old school times there
Thanks for the feedback I really appreciate it have a great day
going tomorrow for the first time. great video. have a general idea of where to go. thanks bro.
As someone who is new to fishing in the USA, thank you for this guide!! Any suggestions for shore fishing for catfish?
It was silverwood to start and then depending on the weather, head to big bear or lytle creek on the way home😉
Thanks for the info! Plan on heading out there Sunday for the first time. Renting a boat and targeting Largemouth.
Great video. Silverwood is always my go to lake. I catch a lot of trout and catfish there. I always go for a nice hike early in morning then hike back up. I have a few videos posted. Never much luck with large stripers though. I catch a lot of smaller ones on rooster tails when I'm trout fishing, haha.
I've caught only a few stripers over the many years on the spoons I fish with but I know a lot of people that catch both fish on worms often. Not a bad alake at all when you know where to go
Blake Jones and then a Sunday stop at Diaz Lake on the way home is always a great weekend.
Definitely! Perfect weekend.
Excellent video! Please make more.
Awsome video. I'm gonna try my chances parking at the overlook on the 138. Maybe if I go with an empty car and clear windows they wont even bother lol. Do you know if the largemouth bite is good?
One day I hope you can do a video like this for pyramid lake. I've been trying to find a hiking trail into it for ages
Largemouth have been doing good throughout the lake.... Mainly cleghorn south shore
Finally got my Striper this year! Thanks for the info! I have the videos updated on my channel.
Re:Cast Fishing congrats on the fish!!!
Is there crappie at silverwood?
@@thomaschung5623 I have not caught any, but I heard they are in there.
Great information...JUST A HEADS UP: around feb.2018 they closed off the dam access for walk in fishing
thanks man , it was very informative , I want to go there in some time , so good to know where to park and fish and other things you mentioned , if you can do this type of video for Lake Gregory , it's will be awesome
Gregory video is coming up along with a fishing video from there... stay tuned.
Spot by big mommas cove, I wouldn’t hike there i heard something that sounded like a bear idk what it was but I didn’t want to findout
Great video with narration!
Great commentary, thank you!
very nice video bro
Appreciate that!
Thanks for the info am planning to fish there in the next few weeks
super informative. i have a friend who goes down here sometimes im sending the link thanks for the info
Good deal, always glad to help out
Great video. Thanks. It looks like the Pilot Rock truck trail might offer some float tube access in the vicinity of the quarry area where I'd like to fish for stripers. It's hard to tell from Google maps how steep the drop to the lake would be. Does anyone know if it's possible to get a float tube down to the lake in that area?? Thanks.
Fished the quarry in the late 90’s early 2000’s lots of trails easy to get to water. But had to have 4x4 to get there. We caught some huge cats and striper
A word of caution for parking at the lookout mentioned near the 10:00 mark, from time to time the sheriff department will show up there and bust people for anything from trespassing to fix it tickets or anything else they can find. Probably a few times a month they will be found there.
There's no reason to ticket for trespassing... Its legal to park there
Thank you for the guide , any specific coves or points for largemouth bass, I heard Miller Canyon pretty active ?
Really depends on water levels and time of year. They adjust water level often. When water is more stable cleghorn and Miller can be pretty good.
@@TroutWest How do you know if it's stable?
@@kendrickmuii2660 you gotta go to know!
Great video sir thank you
u should do something like this more often
DABEAST Moua there are a few more likes I will do pretty soon
Thanks for sharing dude!
Any advice on this lake since water lever is incredibly low? We were there yesterday and the lake is dry near the buoys in Miller canyon.
It can definitely be really tough when they do that... and will be tough again when they raise the water level as fish will need to find the habitat again. It can be kind of risky walking the shoreline when it's that muddy...but any where the water is entering the lake regardless of access will be pretty good. the coves near the outlet towers will obviously have some fish because of the heavy flows leaving the lake. all the food will funnel toward those towers and the trout will want to be there but will be forced to be near shore because of the striper. Shallow coves regardless of Lake condition will be the best bet this time of year. I really like the Sand Beach area to the left of the main Marina. you will have to probably use wader's or some shoes that you don't mind getting really muddy. When they lower the water this much I like the float tube and sit in the channels. I'll be there in the next few days... So stay tuned
Urban Outdoorsman looked like it was pretty good in miller last week? (Based off your most recent video, assuming miller?) I was fishing a San Diego lake last weekend and we totally got skunked -.- we’re itchin for a little redemption.
@@ep_phonehome It's been good in all the usual trout spots at Silverwood... Cleghorn, marina,miller & channels
Urban Outdoorsman awesome! Appreciate the help and love the vids. We’re catch/release (usually fly fish), but have been switching back to spin rods trying to get into some local trout. Ive had a terrible dry spell last couple times and jonesing to get into a bite! Hope to shake it this weekend lol
Great video 😎👍🎣
I know this is a relatively old video, but I'm thinking of going this weekend from shore. Probably gonna target trout, any idea where the action is?
All this info applies. Same lake, same water. If you want more i do weekly reports on Patreon most of the time it includes Silverwood
Heading there with the family this week. We're camping at one of the campgrounds and plan on fishing every day. Thanks for the info as we've never been there before. Also going to try out the kayaks for the first time. How's the fly fishing this time of year? Any recommendations?
Mark Wright fly fishing is good super early. Olive matuka olive or black wooly bugger gold bead heads. Try Miller Canyon. Past bouy line. 5-10 feet of water or super deep with spoons in Miller. I'd head straight for Cleghorn near the boat ramp. Try that then head to Miller for the day for bigger hold over
How's the fishing right now? Heard because of the trout bacterial outbreak, they aren't stocking trout. I'm going to try for the stripers but not sure when's the best time or where. Also heard that the water level is low and that there isn't any water flowing...
Striper has been great all summer and fall. Silverwood gets private plants too. Water always low in the fall to accommodate winter rain water from up north
@@TroutWest I'm assuming all the spots mentioned in the video are good? How about winter striper fishing, is that good? Finally, where does the winter rain come in through?
@@kendrickmuii2660 you're full of questions that's for sure! You should probably check out the patreon side of the channel. I cover all that stuff weekly and allow in-depth analysis questions on each Lake. Fishing changes all the time at Silverwood especially depending on the weather you can catch striper year round regardless of the weather situation but it changes location and technique with those weather changes. Water comes in through the inlet near the dam.
Would you recommend fishing silverwood or gregory during this time in summer? It's going to be from the shore. Also are we better off going for trout or bass since the weather is so hot? Thanks for your time!
It's a lot of rotten people nowadays breaking into other people's cars. 😠😡 Terrible times we're living in.
I agree 👍
Very informative! Been fishing silverwood for sometime now but still haven't scored a striper. This will come in handy. Thanks for the info!
Right now off the docks you will get a striper on a frozen cut bait, There's also some action in Cleghorn and Miller. But if you hit the dock right now they are biting pretty consistently. .Good luck out there. If you see a trout plant at the dock or cleghorn, that's a good time to try
Urban this is Paul do you just need your California fishing license or do you need to get a tag to fish that lake thanks
Just a state license, park entry fee is $10 per car not per person.
Is there only one entrance to the lake? Or what’s the best entrance for Cleghorn? First time going this Wednesday for the trout stock
If you want to fish cleghorn you can enter the main gate or you can park outside the park and walk/ride in.
Great video👍
1bait caster thanks for checking it out!
Great video. Do you know who stocks the lake?
Used to be Calaveras fish hatchery, and DFG. I know it's still DFG but I don't know where they are pulling fish from to do the plants right now. A lot of hatcheries shut down in the last year or so
Good place to fish .. really need a boat to get the best spots 🐟
Larry Saavedra not really... If you are fishing for striper than yes definitely it's good to have a boat but if you are fishing trout you can get them from Shore all the way through summer
i check the states. isthe fish safe to eat? the state said its not safe to eat but i ask other people they said they eat it. whats your thoughts? mainly like stripper im looking for
Trout are very safe mainly the ones that they recently planted which are the majority of the fish you would catch. as for the striper it's best to limit them and the catfish out of these lakes they have the most toxins. It's not recommended to eat either or of those fish more than once a week
@@TroutWest thats the confirmation i need. i can at lease eat one stripper if i catch any. i love stripper. it has a natural slightly sweet taste to it.
do you know any other lake that has a more safe to eat for stripper?
They're all about the same with the toxin levels. No one lake is safer than another. Good luck fishin
Urban Do they have plenty of boats to rent during the day and what do they charge, thanks
They usually have quite a bit for rent.... rockymountainrec.com/lake-facilities/listing/lake-silverwood
Good info I had good luck with the soft plastic. I have a question non related to fishing though if you can help me out have you seen any quail around the lake if so please let me know where I can locate them thanks a bunch.
Yeah we've seen em' Pretty much everywhere around the lake. Depends on the time of year, I haven't documented when so I couldn't tell you specifics on that.. but we've seen them all over it
Where is a good spot to fish where we can have the old ladies sit back and picnic not too far away?
By boat? Or shore. Depends. If you're talking about from shore I assume you would want to be near the car for the picnic side of it and that area would be cleghorn beach. By boat.... Miller canyon.
you got a dirt road just before you get to the dam on your left side that will take you to the back side of the lake !!
How was the fishing?
The car break-in has been going on for years. What if you take up a beater car and just leave it open with nothing to steal in it?
TheDesertwalker I would rather park a nice car and wait in the bushes with 2 Glock 40s!
Just wondering how the largemouth fishing is in February
They start to perk up if the water stays cold we had a little bit of warm so they were starting to hit a little better but it's cold now so they will move back out. March is a really good month
Thinking about going this weekend, anybody been recently? Lookin for some trout
Fishing at Silverwood is really good right now. Trout are in about 5 to 10 ft the first hour or so of daylight then 10 to 25 after that. Maine boat launch Cleghorn Cove and Miller Canon of the Best Bets
Urban Outdoorsman thanks! Stoked to go check it out!
Just watch out for the resident bear in Miller canyon I had a run in with him he gave me a grunt, he seen me first thankful he wasn't hungry.
gratch gratch I've heard of black bears in the area there but I've never seen one a. I have seen some scat along the road at different times of the year. Hopefully someday I'll see you out there
Urban Outdoorsman I'm always out near chemise cove but yeah bro I'm down
Right on... I wanted to wait until it got cold again but looks like this Thursday a front is going to come through but then nothin' for a week or 2 after. sucks
Is there crappie at silverwood?
Thomas Chung Well I did take a poop in there when I was a child so Yes! yes there is!!
Is there an up to date fishing report website?
I do weekly reports on patreon 🤙
How the fishing right now spring time? Any stripers? Catfish?
Fishing on all species is really good...
I was there yesterday water level was low and we had no luck lol actually no one got any fish at all 😔
They are lowering for incoming rain water from up North. If you want fish you gotta find the right depth and temps
Where striped bass locate at?
Boat docks, Miller and by boat.
Is there crappie at silverwood?
Thank you so much!!!
Dude, you fuckin rock for these vids man!
Glad you enjoyed them... make sure you subscribe, more to come!
Just got back from there bout an hour ago caught a nice stripper off of a nightcrawler didnt have any other bites any tips on what bait or lures to use?
Ty Loper This time of year it's location not really what you are using. If you want trout fish near the inlets and close to the bottom
Urban Outdoorsman right on man i appreciate it
Been fishing that lake 20 plus years was using cut bait anchovy doing well then I tried fresh sardine cut into four quarters kills them caught 19Lb on sardine bad news is caught it off the end of the damn. But sardine drives them crazy.
They closed the damn down to fishing as of this week
Thanks for the update. I'll have to keep checking on that and update if anything changes
Urban Outdoorsman that’s what some ppl said on fishingnetwork.net that is closing this week
was there last weekend, talked to the park ranger its officially close as of feb 8, dont know when they'll will open again
@@fishing_guy I've been going to silverwood for 20 plus years and the damn was the only spot I fished. I took a friend and his wife and we drove up about 6 months ago got there at 10 pm and pulled up to the damn and was blowen away the fence they put up is the most secure fence I've ever seen it goes all the way up the mountain to the top and all the way to the bottom of the damn it sucks and the reason for it was at the end of the damn they had put up barbwire and signs saying stay alive stay out and someone cut them down and someone got to close to the edge where they had it blocked and it gave way and the gentleman drowned so no more damn fishing ever on the damn don't know if I'll ever go back got personal best striper 19lb and 12 lb catfish many fish on the damn so sad.
the break ins at the dam are still going on? my dad had his car broken into a while back when he went. sad that its still going on.
The dam is closed indefinitely now...Blame the break ins,vandalism,graffiti,littering, trashing of the restrooms,theft,assualts and ultimately moving the rip rap on the dam face.Another good spot in So.Cal shutdown to everyone,due to some disrespectful idiots that don't know how to act.
cory arnold if California would issue some CCWs than alot of that would have never happened in the first place!
My car got broken into before too
They stocked Browns? Do you know what size?
James Reck it was 2000lbs so I'm guessing the 1/2 to 1lb class with a few 2s. They usually plant decent sized fish at Silverwood because of the stripers.
ONS reports that they actually stocked Brownies twice in the last couple months. I might need to plan an overnighter up there soon but it's damn expensive to camp there.
You can disperse camp in the area if you want to, just no "bathrooms" or what have you. If you're interested let me know. There's also camping at Mojave River Forks Campground. That's just down the road from the Silverwood dam.
good to know, I will hit you up later for more info, thanks.
Is there crappie at silverwood?
When do they stock trout. Summer or winter???
They only stock in the winter, plants have been lighter this year than last year.
We’re is the best to swimbait fish striper
How's the striper fishing on shore?
Depends on the time of year
@TroutWest I'm planning to be there in mid October. Any spots you recommend for stripers on shore?
do u know any good catfish spot in silverwood lake? 😂 i want some catfish
BassOn the dock.. or Cleghorn canyon.
do u have an IG page?
Can you catch striper off the shore at cleghorn dock?
Matthew Perez sure can
Any areas good for catfish
Matthew Perez Cleghorn Canyon is pretty good but a lot of people Target them from the boat dock in the main Marina area. Off of the docks there
I was a saw pit canyon on sat and didn't get a bite or anything. I haven't fished since i was little so maybe I had the wrong rig setup. My line just kept getting caught.
Matthew Perez saw pit is really good for trout too
Can you take bikes?
Yep
@@TroutWest thanks
@@TroutWest What bait do you recommend for trout?
I like how they say they close the damn for security. We all know it was because piece of shits litter. You could fly a 747 into that damn and not even hurt it.
Where are the crappie
Usually cleghorn or near the boat ramp docks
Thanks gonna try it
In the stripers bellies..No but seriously,not that good of a crappie lake.
So basically fish the whole lake lol
This isn't a where to target certain fish video it's where you can access fishing spots by shore video.
R.i.p~fishing off the dam.Fenced off now...Thanks to all the idiots for screwing it up.
cory arnold yeah that really sucks it was a great place to fish for a lot of people. Plus it was free
Ill miss it.Have a lot of great memories there...I wish people would act right,when they are in places like this and not tear shit up and take advantage of their freedoms,because you see what happens...Those freedoms get taken away.A good place to fish and reflect for free got taken away from the people because of a few disrespectful idiots.Its a shame,and pisses me off.
What about lake perris
fernandooooooooo909 they are filling Perris back up so I'll do an update once it's full
