How to Identify California Rockfish
Filed Under Extras
Well…one way to learn is to come fishing this summer on one of the Wind Rose Charters and I’ll show you how to identify the different species of Rockfish.
But in the meantime, you can check out this page: http://www.dfg.ca.gov/marine/rockfishid.asp
“With more than 60 species of rockfishes found along the California coast, identifying catch can be difficult for beginning anglers, experienced anglers and sportboat crewmembers alike. With current ocean sport fishing regulations putting sublimits on some species and requiring anglers to release others, being able to identify catch has become even more important. ” - From the CA Dept of Fish & Game Website
