As we're leavin the park im trolling the shore line just for fun, as im walking up on some guys fishing one yells out i got something!!! So i reel in my line and run over BAM!!! A BIG OLE SIX POUND BASS!!! I would have never believed it had i not seen it with my own to very large eye balls. THERES FISH IN THE NARROWS!!!

Of course there's fish in there just don't go advertising it! A good amount of people respect the fishery and take an active role in keeping the fishery alive through catch and release. I hope though for the sake of the lake that you released the bass because the lake isn't what it used to be as compared to a decade ago.

Anyways, congrats on your bass it's always a stellar feeling when one lands a chunk fish.

Yeah, I know there are fish in that lake. I have caught some, and I have seen some caught. There are lots of panfish and lots of bass to eat them. I've caught catfish and koi and lots of redear there. There are even supposed to be some big carp in there. I was there Thursday to fish the afternoon and evening for the carp and catfish. I tried everything I knew in what looked like a real nice spot and...I got skunked again at Legg Lake. Some old guy came by and told me there were no fish in that lake. I know they're in there, I just wonder why I have such a hard time getting them out.

We used to fish all night for catfish there at the main lake where the little "stream" goes in. We would hide under the little bridge when a police car would go driving by. We caught some real giant Channel Catfish on Bonita chunks and also balls of Velvetta cheese. Bass were good too on Rattle traps. In the morning when it would get light, people were amazed at the size of the catfish and bass we had. After a couple of photos, we would let them go. I'm talking about 10 to 22 lb catfish and 2 to 6 lb bass.

u guys are all liars! i fished legg lake 5x in the last month and have yet to catch a bass. i will never fish that lake again! i did see a couple of bass caught but they were 8-10inches. from what i heard all the big ones(2-3lbs) were taken home by the asians and mexicans using live bluegills. where are the dfg when u need them? anyway, im done with this place. its dirty, stinky, too much algae and weeds. i'd rather fish el dorado because its cleaner and well maintained. legg lake stinks! pudd and peck are also great places to fish!

a legg'er posting so people don't know the real story, or you simply don't know how to fish. Either way, don't hate because you have no skills

i probably dont have skills because i dont fish often as you do. i dont take fishing seriously, its for my leisure. i enjoy being outdoors and just relaxing but if i catch a fish its a bonus. the reason i dislike legg is because its dirty and i hate walking on duck crap. i'm in my 40s so i enjoy taking my nieces and nephew out fishing.

btw, what is a legg'er? im confused. like i said, i've only fished that place a handful of times and from my personal experience it wasnt great. more power to you if u catch big bass at legg. WOOHOO! you're awesome dude.

I don't think that's fair. If there is one thing I would say about Legg Lake it is that's it's clean and actually a beautiful lake. I visited Peck Road once, and it felt...well...dirty. I havent caught any carp at Legg YET, and the cats don't come when I want them, but I still think all three lakes are just really nice clean lakes.

Yeah Legg is actually pretty clean compared to some city parks. Like Echo *cough* *cough*.

Means FELIPE's post was made up just so he can get responses or reactions. Sort of like trolling for fish, except the bait is his post and the fish are the people who respond. Trolls are forum cancers and just seek attention.
