Petrale Sole
Monterey Bay offers some of the most consistent Petrale Sole fishing on the West Coast. What makes this area so productive is the relatively shallow, sandy bottom that extends far offshore, providing ample habitat for these flatfish. The best time to target Petrale Sole here is generally from late spring through early fall, when the weather is calmer and the water temperatures are more stable. Focus your efforts in depths of 180 to 300 feet, drifting slowly over the sandy bottom with a baited spreader rig. Local tip: Launching from Monterey Harbor gives you quick access to productive fishing grounds. Also, be aware that the bay can get foggy quickly, so always check the marine forecast before heading out. Monterey Petrale are known for their good size and firm texture, making them a prized catch for local anglers.
