Sad note about Perris
Just at dark
A guy in a Dark blue outcast tube launched from shore near the old coastguard dock (no longer there)
He was pulling the structure out of the water by dragging some sort of chain and hoop
putting the citrus tress on the shore line
when questioned he said he was dragging the bottom for his lost 250.00 swim baits ..really I know most fishermen cant afford a 250.00 swim bait
He also had a gill net being used And a bucket of small fish
the Net was in Use! full of small bass and some bluegill
Pretty sure the reason for removing the structure was so the gill net did not get caught
He used pretty vulgar language when i question him and was threatening till i Approached him quickly and and asked him to repeat
his previous statement he backed down.
He was making remarks about the old fishermen and why do they even care about the structure or how they catch fish
he then told me he would put the structure back and quit his activities
i walked on and came back in 5 mins and they had left the area already up in the launch ramp and left the structure and one bucket of fish on the shoreline
i alerted the lake patrol but it was too late by the time they could get to him
I know the lake is falling but it may not fall another 10ft so most of the structure would have been spared
now there are 6-9 Citrus tree habitats sitting on the shoreline and less habitat for the fish
Amazing the Loss of Moral and ethical values were are seeing
I am sure Fish and Game would love to know we have people removing habitat they put in the lake with the tax payer dollars
the good news is that it does seem the lake rangers do care about the resourse and would love to catch the guys doing this
