I go in off of Seifert Ave, which comes in from Blossom Hill. Not only are these ponds blocked somewhat from the wind, you also don't get kicked off an hour before sunset! Y'just have to get your gear over (or through!) the fence, but it's do-able. Just pick a pond & drop right in -- I've caught fish in every one of the 5 ponds I've checked out out there!

I've fished out there til I can't see 10 ft in front of me, and the fishing is generally superior to Almaden (whether you're talking the park lake or the reservoir up in the hills). My biggest out there is 6.2, but I've caught a couple around 4, with a bunch of 1's & 2's in-between.

Maybe meet you out there sometime? It's kind of hard for me to get home early enough during the week most days, but every now & then...

It doesn't get patrolled too often, from what I've experienced, but be sure to have your license with you; they do come through every so often, checking. They've always been OK with me tubing out there, though. No resistance whatsoever, so far. Even the neighbors there have been pretty cool with me, asking how the fishing is, and even helping me at times with my gear! Such a deal!
