i have fished there and i can tell you the fishing is fantastic. I almost caught one that would have weighed at least 50 lbs. Unfortunately it got off the hook right at the edge of the water and ran away as fast as its 6 legs could carry it. and its 3rd eye was staring at me as it disappeared over the horizon.
Hey JIMMY TATE well I had a run in with your one that got away and I'd like to report the gal has gained about 10 pounds and has 2 additional feet another set of 3 eyes and well dont know how to put it it's a new momma. Yes sir I hooked into her and asi it walked up to me asking for some pliers it managed two words and then a single sentence that made no sense until today reading your comment. "Wheres Jimmy" it said then noticing I could not speak and about to throw up it jumped and spun 180 degrees and moonwalking back to the water it muttered "baby needs its daddy" and the last thing I saw was 2 3rd eyes going underwater over the horizon. So I guess congrats are in order it's a squidbaby.
Americans have been rightly proud of the way that their engineering has tamed their world and made it more productive. But so often there are consequences. Too much of a good thing becomes a bad thing. Whether it is the overuse of water, coal, oil or the disposal of wastes there are serious consequences that accompany our activities. Yet we are unable to control anything. Political stagnation at work.
smitajky ,, ya you got that right , but it isn't just the government, its the people that do a LOT of this pollution.. However if we do not pay more attention to our politicians and big industry we are not going to have a world left for most of us to live on ...
Stop farming in the desert.... Your lagoon will will return. Blame yourselves for not conserving water but instead trying to grow plants in the desert.
If man doesn't get his head out of his ass pretty soon we will all regret it and I really feel for the young children that will inherit all our sins of the earth.
No this is what happens when the irrigation district takes the water They bought up property on the shore of the Salton Sea to do he same thing. Check it out.
15guinea this land wasn’t designed for Mexicans to deplete all of its resources. It honestly wouldn’t be a problem if Mexicans could control their out of control population.
A desert is almost uninhabitable by humans our need for water is to great. The solution to these problems is simple relocation. This is a complete man made crisis that the rest of the country should not have to worry about or pay for. But we will because the people in az nm and southern ca will never give up there coushy life in the sun.
What your looking at is EXACTLY what will happen if the California Delta tunnels project is completed. "Those that do not learn from history are doomed to repeat it".
nunyer beeznaz - When the EPA dynamited the Colorado Copper Mine a few years back it blew a hole underneath the river bed and dumped tons of copper into the Colorado River and the results are what you see today ... just Google it and you can see for yourself. This was a pristine waterway and all it took was one accident to make it this way forever!
The fishing is insane. So many fish in the lagoon you can practically walk on the water. I'm lying. Don't come here and bother the 8.5 lb bass that lives at the bottom of my stairs.
What a mess we have and continue to make in this world. We in our greed and arrogance destroy everything we come in contact with. Woe has come onto the earth with the arrival of man who has like a plague descended upon anything good and has corrupted it beyond all past recognition to the point that he will destroy himself along with all other life upon this planet.
you can pipe all the water from the lakes arizona and colorado nevado to las vegas then there is no water for irrigation and farming and the west dries up
The narrator did much to describe a bad situation, and offered nothing in the way of a solution.The same with many of the commentors. Also, no information about the septic systems used by all those houses along the water. Methinks that had more to do with the death of the man-made river than the narrator let on, and perhaps was the reason the powers-that-be decided to isolate what may have become an open septic lagoon.The Colorado River supplies drinking water to lots of people.
Methinks you are so wrong .... They did a study here, about 99%.9 percent of the poop in the water comes from birds, fish, and the farms that use poop for fertilizer by the truckloads just upstream. It California, so keep using the field to grow grain for Saudi Arabia and cotton for the rag trade, and we'll just move off the lagoon and move to a cubby hole in the city where we can walk to our mugging and our poop will disappear like magic without an ecological effect.
The dems, congress and the senate have no problem giving millions of dollars to foreign countries and do not care what is happening in their own state and country. K Harris running for president and CA has homeless living on the streets. How can she run the country if she can't take care of her state?
No, the United States should STOP paying to fix EVERY BODY ELSE'S PROBLEMS IN THE WORLD AND FIX OUR OWN FOR A CHANGE!! We seem to be the welfare ATM for the entire world right now!
Drougth: CA and rest off the South West got 2 choice, fix the problem or keep the water problem! CA got 85,9 m acre foot, Coloumbia river dumps 191,3 m foot into The Pasific every year. Move 10% off this water. Make a 365m long tunnel from Red Bluff. NV, AZ, Mexico keep Colorado water.

I suggest some of the commentators here including those that created the video go back to how all this happened to begin with....look up Senator Wayne Aspinall and others who perpetrated the Colorado River interstate commission, the dams and the canals all in the interest of developers, agriculture and ranchers trying to exploit a land that won't be exploited. You complain about one lagoon when far more was lost, for instance Glen Canyon (check out the Sierra Club book "The Place No One Knew"
The Colorado River ceased being a river decades ago it is now a water delivery conduit more canal than river it is the most managed and altered river in the world and not a drop of it goes unclaimed.
The Colorado River in Texas is the original Colorado River. The one in CO and CA was originally named the Grand River, as in the Grand Canyon, but back in the 30s some idiot senator from CO got the named changed in Congress.

This is the lagoon not the river, this is nothing but propaganda. Water rises and falls according to the dam releases. I took my wakeboard boat down to PV and had no issues.
Exactly. I have a place in PV. It's a beautiful place and it's peaceful. Water rises and lowers with water released from Colorado River to fields. Been going there 30 years. Nobody's ever got sick.

Problem is they restrict the rivers from flowing on their own & that restriction is goung to throw it out of balance!!!
Where is the Army Corps of Engineers? They love fixing these kinds of major screw ups.
john kevil, jr last time they tried to re-route the Colorado River they created the Salton Sea.
Hah! Good one Wayne! You are absolutely right. John
LOL! The Army Corp of Engineers is usually THE CAUSE of this kind of disaster!!
See levy maintenance along Mississippi river for reference matrial.
We need more immigrants! More people will solve the problem!
All rivers silt up and change course. Just look at any river on a overhead map.

All waterways require continual maintenance to stay open and flowing.
No they don't they maintain themselves if we leave them alone.
All the rivers in the world would just stop if americans didn't help them flow

STOP SAYING "MAN"..PEOPLE HAVE LIVED IN THESE AREAS FOR THOUSANDS OF YEARS WITHOUT ISSUE. DEVELOPERS AND GREEDY EUROPEANS DESTROY IT ALL
Women too...
The old saying goes, don't bring forth a problem unless you also bring forth a solution.
Look at those specialized watercraft and the mouth breathing captain.
No this is what happens when the irrigation district takes the water They bought up property on the shore of the Salton Sea to do he same thing. Check it out.
the problem is that this water has been routed to las vegas now the river and lakes are ruined
it was a gamble
why has this waterway been forsaken ?
First those houses should have never been allowed. Second shut off the channels stealing water and never let them be reopened
Especially shut down the Alva B Adams Tunnel/Big Thompson Project! Put that water back into the Colorado river and the Southwest will be fine.
This is what happens when you cram millions of people into an area that shouldnt even support thousands.

What your looking at is EXACTLY what will happen if the California Delta tunnels project is completed. "Those that do not learn from history are doomed to repeat it".
Liberals never learn anything and continue to repeat failure after failure.
What we really need is high speed rail and a few million more illegal imigrants. That will fix all our problems.
I think I may have caught something just from watching this... and I don't mean a fish!
Where I am from they call it a dredge project.
How sad😢
