California had plenty of natural bay and wetland areas prior to the development of our coast that provided plenty of natural habitat for the spotted bay bass (spotted sand bass). In fact, it is estimated that we have lost more than 90% of our natural wetland habitat due to development, agriculture, industrial pollution, etc. The spottie has simply been able to adapt and flourish in the protected waters of our man-made bays.

The habitats that the spottie used to call home, for the most part, no longer exist. The man-made bays have replaced those habitats.
