Rockfish regulations....double checking

Thank you for all of the replies!  I bought the laminated folded Rockfish guide from the place in Richmond linked through the DFG website with 40 different rock fish pics, as well as the others I listed, with characteristics and info on telling which is which. This thread was to fill in the limits and rules for each one with a sharpie so I could mark the regs on each fish. Turned out to be very informative. thanks again and looking forward to reading the final write up.

This thread cleared up a lot for me. I always stopped at 8 rf, because I wanted to save room for my two lings. Cool.

I got the first pass at that thread done:

Let me know if you want anything added or clarifications, etc.

I was also told that if you have salmon on board along with the RCG's,  your hooks will be checked and they better be all barbless Circle or J hooks. I've been complying with this.
Pls check n clarify.

Many thanks for this post.

Once you have salmon on board, you must fish barbless.  You may possess barbed hooks with salmon on board, but they can't be in the water.

No minimum size on rockfish. But the smaller ones have little meat on them, so throw them back to grow bigger.
