Monster fishing teased by Silver Beach lake test results
Fisheries Branch representatives tested Silver Beach lake last week and found fish plentiful, especially pickerel. A 25 to 30 lb jack escaped the net as it neared the boat, prompting a July return for a more thorough hunt for the monster. Several locals from Wetaskiwin and other towns vacationed at the beach. Nick Laskowski hooked a 7½ lb pickerel on a boat ride after tying a hook to string.
