Here is a quick update on the White Sea Bass Program for CCA CAL members…
HSWRI has been making their winter deliveries of baby White Sea Bass these first two weeks of December.
Fish have already been delivered to Southwest Yacht Club, Channel Islands Harbor and Marina Del Rey. Newport Beach will get their fish on Monday December 12th and King Harbor will receive them on the 17th. Catalina will receive a delivery at some point during the week of the 19th.
These fish will “winter over” at most of the grow-out facilities until they are about 8” long, with a release in the early spring of 2017.
The Sea Bass in the Class Room program will be releasing their fish in the next few weeks as scheduled.
