California halibut-In California
Posted: Thu Aug 14, 2008 7:59 am
Tom2000:The California halibut or California flounder, Paralichthys californicus, is a large-tooth flounder that ranges from Bodega Bay, California to Baja California waters. It feeds near shore and is free swimming. It typically weighs 6 to 50 pounds (3 to 23 kg). It is much smaller than the larger and more northern-ranging Pacific halibut that can reach 300 pounds (140 kg). A top level predator that hunts by stealth, it is prized by fishermen as great table fare. Sport fishers typically use light fishing gear and live baits for this halibut. Baits include anchovies, sardine, squid, mackerel, and queenfish (brownbait). Some anglers use plastic lures and scampitype "lead heads" to fool a halibut into striking.
