Tablerock in Laguna is a good place for Calico Bass ...mine was caught near there from the rocks that you walk to from the beach. What does bother me about the other fisherman I see fishing the rocks is that they keep just about EVERYTHING...small kelpfish, tiny perch, tiny opaleye, small Catalina Blue Perch, small Rock Wrasse, and so forth. I almost always let these go (did give a 12 inch Catalina Blue Perch to a hispanic guy that wanted it a while back) and have only been targeting the Calico Bass recently. Never expected to get one that big so I kept it...I am POSITIVE most of the people I have seen out there would have kept that fish. However, I know that fish was an old breeder, so it is bittersweet. I'll probably release the next BIG Calico Bass (if I ever get one like that again), although I would definitely like to get my first legal WSB off the rocks...heard a few were landed in Laguna a few weeks ago!
