About this trap
Bonao's river pools look calm, but the Fula, Yuna and Masipedro can rise within minutes when heavy rain falls, even if the town itself is dry. A Fula flood in November 2023 caught more than a dozen bathers, and the Yuna rose again after rain in April 2026. Check the sky over the hills before you go, leave the water at the first sign of muddy or rising flow, and follow any COE alert for the province. Choose dry mornings and ask at the bathing area how the river is running.
