I'm planning to go this Sunday with the kids. But there's going to be rain the day before. Does anyone know how SARL water condition after the rain? I'm thinking its going to merky/low visibility and not worth going for trout.

Weatherunderground says no rain until next Monday, so Sunday should be good.
SARL has their "Huckleberry Kid's Pond" that has separate rules (cheaper, opens later) than the main lake, so you might want to look into that.

I'd give them a call, they'll be happy to tell you all the latest info. 714-694-7210
Little to no rain tomorrow, and a big storm coming monday, might mean a good pre-frontal Sunday afternoon bite! Who knows???
Do you think the dirty muddy dark water have to do with the bite? I was there today with my kids and I had 8 rods out and didn't get one single bite minus those damn stupid birds.
Let me tell you a story that happened to me about 15 years ago at SARL. It rained on Thursday so I thought it wouldn't be very good to go fishing there on Friday. I went anyway by myself and found the water a little off color but not too bad. I killed it that day!!!! So on Sunday I invited my friend and his wife and told them it would be wide open based on what happened on Friday. When we got there the water was totally stained from all the runoff coming into the lake. Needless to say the fishing really went into the Crapper!!!! After that I became totally convinced Trout are mostly sight feeders in SARL. So when the Trout can't see because of the rain dirtying up the water. It's more or less a waste of time for the way I like to fish for them in there!!!
