Rockfishes
Rockfishes are a diverse group of fish belonging to the family Sebastidae. They are typically found in rocky areas and reefs in the Pacific Ocean, ranging from shallow waters to depths of over 3,000 feet. Rockfishes are known for their vibrant colors, spiny fins, and large mouths. They are carnivorous predators, feeding on a variety of small fish, crustaceans, and mollusks. Rockfishes are prized by anglers for their fighting ability and are also popular in seafood cuisine for their firm, flavorful flesh.
