There’s good fishing in this lake. I know this because some helpful person painted a bunch of rocks white and wrote “FISHING” on a nearby hill.

Thanks: Mike

    Wild. I saw the icon and said to myself, “That’s Corona Lake!” It’s in Corona, CA. I drive past that hill every day on my way to work. There’s a big sign which claims that the largest bass in the world was caught at that lake, but I don’t know how true that could possibly be.

    It looks like Lake Elsinore to me. Everytime I go to my friend who lives over there, I pass by a hill with those (what looks like) same exact words in the hill.

    Yep, that’s it… Corona Lake.
    Every once and a while someone climbs up there and rearranges the “H” and the “F” so it says “PISSING”
