It is a storm drain that runs from the SanFernando Valley all the way to Long Beach where it dumps to the ocean.
It does get it's share of crap that goes in there from the streets. Fortunately they are putting up grills on the storm drain entrances to keep the majority of the trash out.
Lake Balboa actually draw water from there as the water supply for the lake. They still have fish. Tilapia, Blue Gills, T-Gill hybrids, Catfish and Carp all live in the lake.
They used to plant trout but the bacteria level is so high that they die off. They haven't planted trout in there for close to 15years now. I used to take people fly fishing there.[cool]
