Reviews of Lake Dishwasher pond

Overgrown with reeds, so you can't see the water from any angle.

Lived down the street for a few years with family and loved this place. Dishwasher pond is overgrown now but used to be a great little fishing spot for bluegill, bass and catfish but the reeds have overgrown. Would be nice if the community could get together and help clean it out . I’d he glad to help. But I come back from time to time as an adult now and take my dog and still love the trails. Small but great for a short walk. Pretty sure I’ve seen a California weasel once there too I think but it was just a glimpse. Had me wondering the entire day.

The hike here is called Shepherds Canyon, and it is a great Suburban hike of around 3 miles in length in Tierrasanta. Birding is usually good. We have seen Cedar Wax wings, American goldfinch, California Thrasher, and even a red-shouldered hawk down there. We have even seen deer on a couple of occasions. They reside on the island in the middle of the Lagoon

It dried up at one point in the 70s, when I was a kid, and the lakebed was full of dumped things including dishwashers. Always assumed that’s where it got it’s name.

I was hoping to go fishing, but that was a no go.
