Rock Cod or Bottom Fishing: When people use the terms “rockfish” or “rock cod” in a general way, they are actually referring to a complex array of rock cod.
- Black rock cod are by far the most common catch here in the Northwest (about 70-80% of our catch). Most “black snapper” (as we call it here locally) is actually black sea bass otherwise referred to as “black rock cod” or “black rockfish”.
- Other common catches include: Ling cod, Vermillion rockfish, Cabezon, Kelp Greenling and Rock Greenling
- Here are some other varieties you may find on the other end of your line: Blue rockfish, Canary rockfish, China rockfish, Yellowtail rockfish, Quillback rockfish, Tiger rockfish, Grass rockfish, and Copper rockfish
