Sand Bass

    Sand bass are found in great numbers
    along the kelp beds off of California and
    Mexico’s Baja Coast.  Average fish are
    less than 10 pounds, but they are
    exciting to catch.  Many party boats and
    private boaters target the sand bass.  

Catching Sand Bass

Catching sand bass is fairly simple.  Find the kelp beds and chum with
live bait such as anchovies, small sardines, perch and other small bait
fish.  Sand bass will come out of the kelp to get an easy meal.  Medium
spinning tackle is all that is needed for these fish.  Fish with live
anchovies and keep them near the surface.  Don’t let them go down into
the kelp.  Some artificial lures will also work.  Small spoons and jigs work
best.  Most sand bass are caught during the day, but they can be
caught in good numbers at night also.  Sand bass are fun to catch and
great for a meal.
