Bass ID
Can anyone tell me exactly what type of bass this is? I can't tell the difference between calico, sand and kelp bass. I caught this off the Dana Point jetty in the sheltered side by dragging a small/medium white chatter bait through the weeds. Got out of my hand as I was trying to take the pic albeit I pinned it down haha. I was using my bass setup for big bear cause I was getting bored of sitting. Everyone on the jetty was looking at me like I was an idiot cause they were all using cut or live bait. ImageUploadedByTapatalk1393811055.818354.jpg

I'm going to assume it's a calico bass, and I think calico and kelp bass are the same thing just different name.

Looks like a Sand Bass to me! Calicos have a checkered pattern and Spotted have spots.

They are ok to eat, 14" minimum size this year. I'd rather eat Calico.

I'm pretty sissy when it comes to fishy tasting fish(ya I know, it's FISH) but there all good if you fry em up for tacos. Me and my brother caught a ton of crappie in big bear one time and googled "best crappie recipe", and it was basically put spicy brown mustard in a bag with Cajun seasonings as a rub and then coat in flour and lightly fry and it was awesome. I liked it way more than trout, but we never fry trout cause it falls apart so easy.

My first thought was basshole, but it was lacking the tell-tale brown eye.

These guys are trying to screw with you man. You most certainly do not want to eat that fish. That is a brown trout (boneless).
They live in bays mostly and we usually don't get them this time of year. I'm surprised to see one so early in the season. |
