On Wed drove up to front lake and see this ranger on the lake in a boat netting dead catfish it looked horrible and come to find out theyv been going belly up all week . I walked around and noticed the cats dragging their tail and swimming in the shallows figured theyr near dead , damn shame....they just stocked on 15th think its all that under growth maybe depletes oxygen or something hope they can fix the problem ...

Jurupa pond has never been that active in stirring up the water to induce higher oxygen content. On top of that, that park is never busy comparing to the Guasti. Could be the heat creating high weed growth, high turbidity causing low oxygen, and low oxygen due to lack of oxygen induction by stirring the water. Truly a shame to have cats bellying up.
