Photo submitted by Hartzell, August 15, 1931. Most of the specimens on record are of immature fish, but the fact that some are full grown fish in good condition leads to the belief that feeding is not seriously hampered by the queer shape of the mouth. The Butte Lake trout was apparently in good condition and had attained to the weight of three pounds and six ounces.âRichard S. Croker, California State Fisheries Laboratory, August 15, 1931. AN UNUSUAL RECORD OF THE BONITO (SARDA CHILENSIS) Captain C. M. Bouton of the patrol boat Quinnat sent in a speci- men of the California bonito (Sarda chilensis) taken in a shad net in the Suisun cutoff on IMay 12, 1931, by a commercial fisherman, by name Pete Voiles. The California bonito ranges from San Francisco 1o Patagonia. It grows to a length of two or three feet and weighs from twelve to sixteen pounds. The usual food is anchovies and squid. The bonitos range the high seas in large schools moving up and down the coast with the changing seasons. The specimen in question may have become lost from its fellows, joined a school of shad and simply continued with them when they started up the river. As only the head and tail of the fisli were sent in the size can only be guessed at. It was about 18 inclies long.âPaul Bonnot, July, 1931. 9â87669.
