    Water Temp: 56

    Water Clarity: Stained (2-4 foot visibility)

    Report: Fished a local club T on 12/09/2000 and guess what? Yup, I won both irst place and big ish! It was a partly cloudy day with the water temp starting at 56 and ending up at 57 in the area I was ishing. There was no wind and just a little "sporadic" breeze came rom the north. Usually, this time o year has cooler "air" temps, but this time, it was warmer, still cool, but warmer when compared to year's past. I weighed in 2 ish or a total o 6.78 pounds and I threw back a 17 inch ish. One ish weighed 3.78 and the little one weighed in at 3 pounds even. I caught 3 keeper's all day plus I missed one. I ished the dam all day, doodling chocolate/neon blue 6 inch JB worms on a 3/16 ounce and 5/32 ounce brass and glass with the boat in 40 oot o water, casting out to the deep end and working the bait up to the boat. Just barely shake the bait and then let it sit. Work it real slow. The brass and glass was the ticket! That's the deal and hope this will help some olks out....Good luck!

    Report: Read in Western Outdoor News that the bite at Perris has been very good. So I went out saw a 10#der dancing on the water early in the am between about 3 boats, no one can catch him. No bites at all until about 9am when a small ry about as big as my Pop R hit it. About 3 hours later I caught one about twice as big as the irst one on the rocks at the island across rom the launch area. 15 boats in the same area tring to catch ish. CRAZY! Lacals said that the bite just wasnt on that day. Just my luck!
