WHERE TO FISH

Fishing the past week has been of
the good, bad and Indifferent order
bad or Indifferent the day you went to
the beach and good the day you stayed
at home. For instance, on Tuesday at
Sunset Beach there were remarkably
good catches of corbina by the TWO or
three persons who ventured down. one
of the men took twenty-seven good
sized fish that day and others did
nearly as well. Their reports took
crowd down Wednesday and Thursday
and there was nothing doing. The luck
at all other beach resorts ran about
the same.
Sculpin and grouper were caught
freely at Redondo Beach off of No. z
week, and at No. / mackerel, herring,
perch and smelt rewarded everyone
who tried out there.
Clifton Beach was the mecca last
Sunday for a large number of fisher
men who caught surf perch and striped
bass from Off the sands. At the HOOD
and on the outgoing tide the fsh Dit
well at $50 to $50 feet from the shore
and many good catches were made.
Balboa reported good catches of bass,
croaker and corbina several days dur
ing the week and Newport was good
for corbina yellowfin and bass on sew
eral days.
China croaker, spotfins, perch and
bass were caught freely at San PEDRO
bay, and bass, sheephead and white
bass we'll paid the trip to the break
water.
Enormous catches of tomcod, king
fish and smelt wehe made at Long
wharf, and from the sand near Santa
Monica surf perch were caught on one
or two days in large numbers and
sizes. Playa del Rey was good for
corbina and yellowfn, the catches OF
the latter fish running high in weight
and numbers.
Fishermen did fairly well at Her
mosa, Manhattan and Ocean Park, and
Long Beach and Anaheim Landing re-
parted good catches of small fry.
Tide will be high Sunday at 3:55 p. m.
with a rise of 3.S feet from .O2 OF a loot
at TAI a. m. and low again at 7:1l ?.
m. with a drop of only 0.5 foot. This
will make a gentle current in the bays
and channels and with weather condi-
lions right should make good fishing
all day.
