If we have a FF without an option to incorporate the 20 and/or 50 fathom file, will it be a safe assumption to catch RF within the depth <120 feet?

That's my take and I never fish past 100ft anyway. Really rare I go over 100ft. I just want to catch a fish not be a Navionics engineer.
Go fishing have fun stay inside 100ft and enjoy your day fishing. You must have a descending device that you need for sure.

In most places it’s not an issue, but I would recommend glancing at the map before you go, since there are a few spots where the line is in less than 70 feet. See screenshot from near Timber Cove.

How on earth are they going to in force this I just looked most lines are 1/2 out mile from shore and some are even way more than that like a large cove could be a mile out ? They would have to fly over with a drone take a snapshot to prove you were outside the boundary or by boat and pull up next to you and check your position. Any other ways I would be interested in knowing just for my own information not to exceed the rules. Of course we must obey the rules just saying how they going to in force this just asking ok  don't get all huffy please ? https://www.norcalkayakanglers.com/Smileys/Lots_O_Smileys/006.gif

at the 50fa depths it's a different variety of rockfish you can fish for.
