Hey guys was wondering if the reservoir still has any fish in it. My grandpa used to take me there about 13 years ago or so, and we'd catch trout, bass, bluegill. I know they drained it many times, was wondering if anyone fished it recently?? thanks

Yes me too, I would fish it in the 60s but never had any luck there. It was a cool place to fish because know one ever went there. I wonder if it still has water in it. Like the OP said I know it has been drained from time to time.

Hey guys,
I've sent a few private messages out about this, but I'll post it here as well: what's the best way to access the shoreline at San Dimas Reservoir? I recently drove there and could only spot two way: either go down the cliff from the main road, or hike in from north side by fires station at the end of the road. Any tips?

no there arent...they drained it to clean it or something and all the water in there is just run off rain water

I'm sure there are a few bass here and there. There have been VERY few times where that reservoir is completely drained.
Carp are ALWAYS there when it's full.
