DVL closed on Mondays. Perris has algee..
Well went to the most terrible place to fish around me. Fishermen's Retreat.....The bass look so healthy. I was shocked. Myself and my oldest cought a few-lost a few. My youngest got the skunk....DVL this Saturday!!
Looks like a fun place to be fishing, and thankfully you did manage to catch some. That algae bloom crud seems to be sneaking up here and there...just saw news about one in a Michigan lake recently too. Nice photos!

I was told the algae is now gone at Perris as they bluestoned it last week. Fishing there should pick up by the end of next week. DVL is really slow now and the algae is getting pretty bad there. Lake Skinner is being bluestoned this Friday. Hope that helps, good luck and tight lines.

What is "bluestoned "?
DVL has a bloom now too? Wow. I guess I can't get away from it. And thanks for the info BassGuy. Very appreciated.
Bluestone is a chemical they use for smaller lakes to clear up algae and heavy weeds. After about a week or so, the fishing picks up. I normally fish all these lakes regularly, but they have been tough. I have been going to San Vincente Reservoir down by Lakeside for the past couple of weeks and catching about 10-15 fish per trip and I only fish the mornings. It is about 1-1.5-hour drive from Temecula. Not sure where you live, so suggest you to your profile page and put in your actual location, it helps us help you some time. Good luck

Thanks Sir. We have talked before. I'm in Yucaipa. I've been fishing Yuma and the river in yaks for years. Last year went to the bass boat (old age).So Perris and DVL are basically new water for me. Been to DVL 4 times. Have done ok. Been to Perris, got in the algae last trip. Hated having my gear in that crap. DVL isn't listed in the HAB site. Perris is still yellow...I guess we will see. Thanks again 🎣
No problem, glad I could help you some. BTW, DVL is also closed on Tuesdays

Yep, that time if year. A few 90+ days have really kicked started the algae blooms around here as well. A couple of the impoundments I've seen traces of the blue green stuff. Not good. Great that you caught a few though!

Careful that blue-green stuff is VERY toxic

Yeah, community bulletin has been circulating reminding folks to keep their pets away from the water to prevent them from accidentally lapping up the stuff, which can kill them.🤢☠️
