Senior Anglers of Escondido
William Johnson from William’s Bait, Tackle, and Boat Rental, in Lake Elsinore, will be the guest speaker at the April 12 meeting of the Escondido Senior Anglers, talking about how to fish Lake Elsinore, tackle, and the 7th annual Dream Extreme Fishing Derby. $15,000 in cash and prizes for catching eligible fish – Crappie, Catfish, Wiper, Bass, and Carp. Johnson’s shop, at Launch Pointe Marina, serves a headquarters for the event. “My whole reason for doing this is to educate people to the fishing that’s going on in Lake Elsinore,” said Johnson. Johnson is known as the “Crappie King” around the lake. Members of the club enjoy freshwater fishing challenges, summer saltwater charters, surf fishing tournaments, RV camping trips, picnics, and community service to help kids go fishing.
