Calico bass
You can fish calico bass by finding rocky and reefy areas close to the shoreline. This will provide you with more opportunities to fish for structures that are submerged. Low tide is when you can reach more hard structures at the right depths and positions to fish for calico basses. This also means you will find more vegetation which is what calico bass love. First, you must find the right structure for fishing.
Skipjack tuna
Newport Beach offers great fishing opportunities. Try your luck at catching skipjack tuna. While this species is not as popular as other tunas, it can still be caught in good numbers. You will find the best fishing in deeper waters, other than the oil rigs in Catalina Channel and 9 Mile Bank outside Point Loma. Crystal Cove and Newport Beach are two to five nautical miles away from the best fishing spots. Try your luck in the Box Canyon or Carlsbad Canyon areas.
Sand bass
Sand bass are great for fishing trips if you love to fish. They can easily break a 25-pound test spool and can fight five to eightx as hard as their freshwater cousins. It is best to fish near docks, jetties, or other structures in order to catch these fish. Sand bass are a notorious predator and will hide around rocks, jetties and docks in order to prey on small fish. A mooring line is an excellent place to cast your lures.
Surfperch
Surfing the beaches of Newport Beach is very popular, but it's possible to catch other kinds of fish such as sand bass or barred bass. These species are usually found near the bottoms of tide pools. Live bait is best for them. Also known as barred surfperch, these species are not suitable for culinary use. They are attracted to small, similar live baits and artificial lures. These are some helpful tips to make your fishing trip more enjoyable.
