Team Bass King's Capt. Chris Mautino sent in some pics from a recent surf/fishing trip "The Baja".  No freshwater bassin' here; but, monster Calico Bass lurk the Pacific coast's kelp forests in search of a meal.  Simply put: these bass are mean.

"I just spent about 5 days in between a couple NW swell surf sessions chucking over-sized swimbaits from the rocks and points in Mex. Connected with some chunky checkerboards. Better days produced 15-20 fish in the 4-8lb range. Beautiful remote coastline choked full of beautiful bruiser bass with no one in sight for miles. Nothing less than 65lb spectra and a buttoned down drag will pull these fish out from the structure tight to the shore. What a blast! Cheers."

]]> 1.13.12 – Newport Beach, CA – California has a unique fishery when it comes to bass fishing.  Sure, everyone knows about the lunker largemouth that haunt many of the Southern California lakes – but, what many do not know is the incredible saltwater bass fishery the rocky coastline of California has to offer.  Bully Calico Bass to 10-pounds or more can beat up most unsuspecting anglers, and feisty sand and spotted bay bass provide great action year round for southland anglers.    Catch and release saltwater bass fishing is taking this area by storm with a nearly 100-team tournament series called the SWBA (Saltwater Bass Anglers) offering So Cal anglers the opportunity for competition in this fast growing sector of bass fishing.  For bass fisherman who plan on traveling to California to do some fishing, we highly recommend trying out this unique fishery of saltwater bass fishing.
