Did you know that...
 
Calico bass do not migrate? I just read that.

Sand bass do migrate though.

Guess I will be very selective in keeping a calico from now on.

I didn't know Calico specifically, but I read that WSB migrate so they are okay to eat. I always figured I wouldn't keep any bass except a WSB if I ever land one.

I was always wondering why people were willing to keep Halibut if they were feeding on the nasty bottoms of the SoCal coast (particularly those caught around me in Long Beach). Turns out Halibut migrate too, so they're okay to eat also. :)

When i do decide to keep a calico i keep them in the 14-15 range anything bigger gets its picture taken then back to the water. Their reproductive and growth rate is fairly slow as well isn't that correct?

They are caught few months out of the
year, then disappear.
