It's an invasive species that has been working its way west across North America. I hadn't heard of it in SoCal yet; this would be a drag. OP, what lake was it in? There may be rangers or similar authorities you could notify so they could look.

I wonder if OP can see replies to replies? I don't know how this works. What I'm saying is, I'm not OP.

I also recently found an invasive species of spider in my yard here in north San Diego, the false widow. Bummer.
