Trust me, you are not the only one with these thoughts. I don't know how many people I know who share them with you. I have been fishing Silver lake all my life and it still can humble me any time I go there. You gotta believe me though when I say that with how tough this lake can be, it can be very rewarding too. It is still a true big bass lake.
Fishing Silver lake, especially this time of year, you just gotta stick to your guns and be persistent with what ever you throw. The biggest mistake I ust to make on Silver lake was making 10 cast with one lure then picking up another rod and do that over and over. When tossing a spinnerbait on Silver this time of year, go at least 3 hours throwing it before trying something else. Same thing if flipping. Don't even change colors more than once or twice. It is real easy to "over think" on this lake this time of year. Silver lake is notorious for kicking a anglers ass for 6 hours then end up taking 14 pounds off of one bush late in the day to win early tournaments.
I would recommend just tossing a spinnerbait, Flipping a jig in the red bushes and have a sinko tied on. (all dark colors) No need to have more then that for a tournament, maybe a Texas rig and a crank but I save that stuff for late spring, summer and fall.12-20 pound test on all rods and reels.
If you really want to learn Silver, try fishing it in May-June. It also has a awesome bite Oct-Nov. The frog bite starts early in the season and ends late too, (always a plus!)
A good bass angler tell me one time, a lake that have many grass have many big bass. And he also say that a lake with no grass is a lake stink like the ass. ha ha ha ha!
