Discovered this place while using a detour south of Algoma. This is a spring fed lake that…read moreaverages 21 feet deep with 38 feet being the deepest point. The lake is 19 acres in size; and it's known for bluegills, brownies, rainbow trout and bass. Latest fishing info says trout are getting scarcer but bass are getting more prevalent. I believe it's catch and release. While we were there kids were swimming. Most of the bottom is termed "muck", while the bottom in the swimming area is sand. There are picnic tables, barbecue spots, a boat landing, a fishing pier and public bathrooms. Not much of a park (it's mostly a gravel parking lot). But the family we saw had set up tarp over one of the picnic tables and were having a great time. A nice place to take the family, swim in the lake and beat the heat. It's off of County Road K on County KK. Electric motors are allowed; but nothing else. If you're looking for a swimmin' hole that's off the beaten track it would behoove you to find this quiet little lake. If swimming is not your bag, bring a small boat and your fishing gear

The sign is not very visible and comes up sneaky. The park has ample parking and open area at the far end. There is a small playground and a building I assume held restrooms. The dam creates a small lake with its ADA compliant fishing pier. You can walk across the small dam and explore the creek downstream of the dam. The Ahnapee Trail runs through this park. We saw a family loading up their bikes after a day on the trail. A nice enough park that is worth the detour off of highway 42.

The lighthouse hole is the hole from hell. If you overshoot the net, your frisbee could easily end up in the lake. I have fond memories of this park from when I was a kid. We used to go to the south end of the park and shoot our 22 rifles. But this is a different age, don't try to do that these days. Silver Creek has the best beaches in Manitowoc. It has areas that are wild enough to do some serious birding. I find it a bit amusing that people have stopped playing disc golf. They are now obsessed with Pokemon Go, so the park is very quiet these days. But today I picked up a bag of trash. Apparently "Swinus Americanus" (my name for litter bugs) are still present there. Red Bull cans, and broken bottles on the beach. It always mystifies me why "people" trash out places of beauty; and what kind of knuckledragger breaks glass on a beach? All that aside, this is a premier park. It is a wonderful place to spend a few peaceful hours. It is surprisingly unused, or, at least, underused. Take a picnic, lay out on the beach and, if you're brave enough, swim in the lake (brrr!). Did I mention that I saw a hooded merganser today where Silver Creek meets Lake Michigan...nice.

Captain Sid Johnson of Silver Strike Fishing just finished 3rd in the prestigious Sturgeon Bay Fall…read moreBass Open! One should expect to land at least 50 fish a day in a world class fishery like Door County when the smallmouth bass are in season! My brother's Southern Belle wife from Atlanta had never landed a fish in her life and in just 3.5 hours we landed 40 smallmouth bass and my brother's wife even landed a 3.5 lb. bass on her own. When my brother brought his son to fish once again we landed 40 fish in just 4 hours. Absolutely amazing. This was again near the end of August and we were dropshotting! My best outing with Captain Sid is 85 fish in 6 hours in a remote windswept bay on May 9, 2022. We landed three 21 inch plus In-Fisherman Angler Award bass, a 40 inch northern pike and a 38 inch northern pike. The action was a fish on almost every cast!!! This exhilirating trip tied with my best outing of 101 smallmouth bass on a Memorial Day weekend around 2000 with Guide Paul Prorok who finished 2nd in the Sturgeon Bay Bass Open in the late 90's (won $25,000) in waders! My biggest fish appeared on the front cover of Midwest Outdoors and also in In-Fisherman magazine. Captain Sid's boat is immaculate, and he has all the latest electronics including livescope!!! Captain Sid is truly a premiere world class guide of upper Door County for bass, and he boast lots of happy out-of-state repeat customers!! Captain Sid has a great bedside manner and will coach you on your technique. He also knows how to put you on the fish bite and also is always ready to net your trophy bass. On a scale from 1 to 10, Captain Sid is a 100!!! I typically book Captain Sid for 8 awesome bass trips a season, but I just booked him with two more eye watering events in late April due to the extremely hot prespawn smallmouth bass bite in a Door County remote bay. A fisherman just landed four 6 lb.+ bass on Easter Sunday afternoon starting at 3 p.m. with his wife at the remote site!!!!

My first cast, I caught a 4 pound bass with a swim jig that Sid taught me how to drag & pause. It was a very windy day with winds gusting to 40 mph, but we still did extremely well on the water, as Sid knew where to go when the weather got tough. In mid afternoon, we also caught a 37" northern pike, which I had professionally cleaned by Andy of Lindal Fisheries. Sid was fun to be with, great to train us in technique, and he kept the boat positioned in spots loaded with fish. I would recommend him to anyone looking for a productive fishing outing for smallmouth bass!
