don't think I ever ran into a Silver....hmmmmm....didn't do a lot of Great Lake fishing cept for Georgian Bay up there...
They tend to stay down in Lake Erie up as far as Saginaw Bay on Lake Huron. Canada gets good spring spawning runs on their side of the Detroit River and Lake Erie. The Thames River gets a great run each spring. Rondeau Bay is good and the shoals off the Eireau beaches all the way down to the Detroit River are good.
