Had a day off yesterday and decided to head over to Perris before my Annual Pass expires at the end of the month. The air temps weren't too bad and the water temps in the morning was at 76.9 degrees and rose to around 81 in the afternoon. I haven't fished the lake since my last report back on 8/28 and didn't know what to expect but decided to put a game plan together the night before and setting/rigging up a total of (7) rods.
On this trip, I didn't want to target any shallow fish because I knew my percentages would turnout better (for quality fish) If I just stick with the deepwater bass from the get go. Perhaps, I never fished anywhere less than 20' of water all day. I ended up fishing several deepwater holes that were saved and locked in my waypoints and to my amazement, every spot that I metered had active fish right under me and were eagerly and ready to take my bait as soon as I dropped it down to them. It was just totally crazy and insane. At one point, I was thinking to myself. If I had utilize both my arms and fished (2) rods at a time, I would had many double hookups, but also probably as many tangle lines and breakoffs as well. By the way, here is one of the screen shot that I took a picture of from my HDS unit of the chaos in the deep:

All in all, it turned out to be an awesome and enjoyable day out on the water. I ended up hooking and landing a total of (6) fish in the 5 pound range and countless fish from 2 to 4 pounds. Here is one other picture that I took of me holding up (2) of the twins:
