Laguna Niguel Lake, set just south of Los Angeles, has all the makings of an amazing bass fishery, except for the fishing pressure. Niguel has gained recognition lately as a producer of big largemouth bass, drawing anglers far and wide, and this has negatively impacted the fishery. Despite the heavy pressure the lake can still provide quality fishing, but getting bites can be tough.
In the colder months, the lake is regularly stocked with trout. Additionally, Laguna Niguel hosts catfish, crappie, and carp. Within the surrounding Laguna Niguel Park, there are plenty of facilities for visitors, including boat rentals. Please note, private boats aren’t allowed on the lake, except for float tubes (pay to launch).
