Yeah that's why it's not fair. Because they stock those trout to just let the bass just get SUPER fat and happy. Normal lakes don't compare. Even some of the best lakes around the country that are renowned don't produce fish like those lakes in CA.
 
Got back from my 2 year awaited 9 hour 15-25 mile offshore charter today! I caught about 20 Black Sea Bass ranging from 8-12" and 1-3 pounds. As well as 3 Sand Sharks, 2 were 36" 10 pounds (rounding tenths of inches and ounces) and one was 42" 12 pounds! Not much variety in my catch but I caught a lot. My cousin caught about 5 or 6 seabass, a 21" red snapper, a 16" Vermillion Snapper, a 30" sand shark, and a 42ish" Amberjack! We're both exhausted as he!! and I've never been more worn out after catching a fish :D.View attachment 1025897IMG_0709.JPGIMG_0730.JPGIMG_0724.JPGIMG_0744.JPGIMG_0752.JPGWish snapper were in season, would've been a nice meal :). Kept the Amberjack and the biggest bass though, anybody know if Amberjacks taste good?

Awesome! I hooked a 3.5' monster a little while ago. They are great fighters!

oh well life isn't fair... can't hate the player I'd be catching the mess out of em if i could!!! LOL
 
@divemaster amberjack are real good eating. Cut out the visible worms when cleaning it and then you can pretty much cook it however you want. My personal preference is to blacken it and use them in fish tacos but they're good grilled or fried as well
