@BigJim - Vermilions always make me happy But I definitely agree with you that depth might not have anything to do with size especially up in central/nor cal. Water is cold enough for them to live in relatively shallow water. Down in LA/SD area, you'd have to get to at least 150-200 ft to get a good size vermilion of that size.

Juvenile verms has distinct spotting along their body and hasn't formed that beautiful bright red color just yet. Here are some pics of what juvenile vermilions would look like:
