12/9/2009 10:27:00 AMSpeaking of rockfish, how do you feel it is doing in Area 10? Do you ever target rockfish (not lingcod) as your first choice for the trip???
Reason I ask is that the WDFW has proposed no retention of rockfish in Areas 6-13, due to the low populations. NOAA may go even further in trying to give rockfish some protection or help rebuild the stocks...

12/9/2009 12:14:00 PMI have been catching alot of rockfish this year. Most of them are species that don't get very big. I don't see the rockfish closure helping the target species much. Thanks for the report.
