As I embark
on yet another journey from Los Angeles International Airport, I find
myself gazing down at this Southern California Reservoir. This State Recreation
Area, nestled between Moreno Valley and Perris City in Riverside County, is a
beloved fishing spot.
Spotted
Bass, Bluegill, Rainbow Trout, Channel Catfish, and Largemouth Bass thrive in
these waters, eagerly awaiting the challenge of anglers. Lake Perris, a haven
for freshwater bass anglers, is not just a popular fishing spot, but a
battleground for bass tournaments. Many seasoned bass anglers have proclaimed
Lake Perris as their most cherished local fishing spot, a testament to the
thrill and excitement it offers.
Just a short distance north of Diamond Valley
Lakehttps://dstewartfishing.com/diamond-valley-lake-from-20-000-feet/, Lake Perris marks the southern end of the
California State Water Project. The picturesque Alessandro Island stands
proudly in the heart of the lake.
