-Grass hog-

20-50 ft., no bait only jigs, 4-14 red, 5-0 grassy.  three anglers, 5 reds, none under 4-10, three lings, and released over 40 black-yellows, sugarbass, blacks, and blues. Lost two very large lings. This is the good stuff!  Notice the cable to the $55 fish!

That's a huge grass rockfish, congrats.

Now this might hurt a bit... you just missed tying the California State record on that Grass Rockfish (5 lbs 1 oz).

Thanks for the props, this fish faught harder than a ten pound ling.  They are very hard to land.

Nice stringers, guys!

What's a sugarbass?

Nice fish, but what's up with the guy in the teal PFD?  In the first pic he looks like he's striking a chilled out pose for a magazine cover and then in the second pic he looks like the fish just said something to him. 

my guess is he's holding the camera,  .

nice fish as usual JRONJ, great photos too.

randy, check JRONJ's other posts, he's got a sugarbass in there, it's an alternate
name of some fish you already know.

I think sugarbass are either:  Olive rockfish or Yellowtail rockfish.

Hey everybody-

         Sugar bass are kelp rock fish.  They come in whitish cream, pink-white, pink, yellow-pink, and white-yellow, green-yellow,  Here is a shot!
