Jose, the closest qualifying water body that contain any good gills will be Castaic. However, the lagoon won't offer you that large size that you're looking for. You have to be on the boat, and hunt the deeper water of the main lake. Been there numerous times. If you have a float tube/boat, hunt the northeastern side of the lake, where the gills and crappie will make you smile from ear-to-ear.

Other than that, you can try your luck at the Elderberry Forebay. I have yet to hunt that ground.
