Lake Perris

-
I fished Lake Perris for bass and sunfish a couple of weeks back. This report is super old, but better late than never, right?

Tried exploring the shoreline of Lake Perris for a few hours, hoping to find some hidden spots. It's really overgrown, but at least they don't fence it off, like at other lakes. Spotted two deer, couldn't get very close.

Somebody is missing their floatie.

The bite was slow, to say the least. The boat traffic was insane, loads of people jet skiing, and racing around on the water. Really choppy, and much more algae than I have encountered before. The topwater action at dusk was awful, nothing like spring or early summer. Only managed this dinky dink largemouth bass.

I stopped by Fairmount on the way home, hoping to score with some night bass. No dice, but I did run into this hoodlum. Raccoons and people compete for the trashbin leftovers at night here, fun to watch.

The Konica AF3 was a 35mm, rangefinder film camera, which was introduced by Konica in 1984.

The auto-focus mechanism of the AF3 incorporated an active infrared focus-detection system, which had been designed to assure precise focusing automatically. The AF3 was available in different colors, which included yellow, silver, and black. It was fitted with a Hexanon 35mm f/2.8 lens, which was made of four elements.

The AF3 also featured an Albada type, bright frame viewfinder with underexposure warning red light and Auto-focus green light indicator. Film advance was by means of a single-action rapid lever on the right side of the camera top plate. The AF3 was power...

New SoCal Urban Creek Green Sunfish

Thanks to a sweet tip from a fellow angler, I found a new urban creek to explore. It's actually more of a canal, but hold water year round and is absolutely loaded with chunky green sunfish, up to 12 inches. I lost track of how many scrappy greenies I landed in a short afternoon fishing session at this Inland Empire creek.  Since then, I've returned several times, always landing loads of these sunfish. I've also spotted a couple of turtles, many mosquito fish, and a couple small largemouth, along with the obligatory pile of litter and trash. Urban creek fishing at its finest hmm?

Spent a lot of time this last weekend at the beach, not only trying out my new M20 action camera,but also a couple of fishing products. One was the YOLO Fishing Bite Alarm, and the other a Yoshikawa 7ft collapsible pack rod. The bite alarm reminded me of the old carp bite alarms I used to use, but unfortunately it didn't work as well. The Yoshikawa rod is fantastic, definitely one I'll be using in the future! These are both courtesy of Gearbest, and you can find them here: Yoshikawa travel fishing rod:http://goo.gl/bNivhs Yolo Bite Alarm: http://goo.gl/oHLIm4 Other Gearbest fishing products:
