What kayak did you buy?

StinkyMatt · 02-10-2014, 06:40 AM

Summer time can get pretty stupid there....lots of drunks driving boats and people leaving trash....

Rest of the year it is a fun fishing lake.

I live in Moreno Valley. Being this close, I can probably get out every other weekend. I've been wanting to learn how to slow it down for LMB.

You know what I'm surprised at?

Fish registered in August 2013, and was still able to get the username "Fish". I would have guessed that was taken a LONG TIME AGO!

Good Job!

I go every so often. Go during the week if possible to avoid most of the douche-baggery. Pre-spawn should be going on or starting soon. Lots of fun on the yak or tube getting in the skinny water and sight fishing. Also, troll some Raps in front of the dam. Can be really fun!

kareem korn · 02-10-2014, 08:18 AM

Yes, I used to sup fish there alot. Launch at the back lots. I think 12.
That back lagoon and along the shore towards the east produce. The bass use that cover. They hit and burn back into it. So you have to work hard to keep their head turned.

Grunt31 · 02-10-2014, 09:04 AM

I have fished it once and heard there were some good stripers. .. and big cats.rock some power bait

Big LMB in Perris. Got a 7 lber out of boat. But yakking is doable.
Try deep in trench , find drop offs. Shallow at tires, and along reeds. Better to go during week. Too many jet skis and power boats. Also the wind is annoying to yak fish from but doable if you go early.

I ended up buying that $200 dollar one from craigslist ...the only thing that bothers me is that the whole damn thing is painted ...even the LOGO's are painted other wise im gna probably fix it up a little and have it as a friend/back up yak until i get something really nice in the future.

BillzBaitz · 02-10-2014, 05:07 PM

yeah Perris is my normal bass lake. fishing last years was spectacular.

Fish · 02-10-2014, 05:08 PM

First day yak fishing at Lake Perris on my new little ride.

Fish · 02-10-2014, 05:11 PM

meant to attach this one too.

Sdspeed · 02-10-2014, 05:19 PM

Looks really clean, any thing bite'in?

BillzBaitz · 02-10-2014, 08:40 PM

Fish let me know when you want to go.. Im up for it.. And you dont have to worry about the jetski or idiot boaters.. We fish the east end which is pretty much a no wake zone.. I have never been a big fan of the tire reef, there is a high spot everyone fishes in the summer over by sail cove but if the regulars are there fishing live crawdads its pretty pointless cause tis all the bass want.

Dail14 · 02-10-2014, 08:43 PM

I went once last summer. I found a fun school of large bluegill that were willing to strike my kastmaster and lost a good sized largemouth at the dam. I also managed to find a couple spots where the lake connects to smaller ponds that are connected by very shallow ( 1-2 inch depth) channels. Luckily any sit on top is easy to get in there and those should be fun during the spawn if we can get some rain to make the channels deep enough for breeders to swim through.

Small world, That was my first yak. You buy it from Hector? Glad the paint job still looks good.
