Constructed in 1918 by the Cuyamaca Water Company and later acquired by the City of San Diego in 1960, this reservoir reaches a maximum depth of 95 feet with 3.2 miles of shoreline. The lake operates as both a water supply source and recreational fishing venue, offering year-round angling opportunities in San Diego's mild climate. Murray provides excellent warm-water fishing with a well-established population of bass, panfish, and seasonal trout, making it a popular destination for both novice and experienced anglers.
