North Valley Angeling-Silver Lake

Silver Lake in Madison is a great place not only for swimming and boating but also for fishing for bass. (FILE PHOTO)

MADISON — The warmer weather has driven many of us off the rivers. Water temperatures over 70 degrees force the trout in our rivers to cold water refuges to ride out the heat wave. For those of you jonesing to fish regardless of weather, it’s time to head to a lake and top-water fish for bass.

Bass fishing in the Mount Washington Valley is a hidden treasure. While anglers flock to Winnepausauke and Squam Lake over in the Lakes Region, we here in the valley head to Silver Lake in Madison and have trophy bass water with no crowds and very little competition.
