About Blue Rockfish

One of the most commonly caught rockfish along the central and northern California coast. Blue Rockfish are found near rocky reefs and kelp beds in relatively shallow water. They are good eating and readily take both bait and artificial lures. Known scientifically as Sebastes mystinus.

Blue Rockfish hold in rocky reefs/kelp beds, typically running 1-4 lbs on the rod, with a fight rated light-moderate, and table fare considered good.

Blue Rockfish charters on Party Boats USA depart from California, Maryland, and Washington. Each coast has its own water, ports, and seasonal rhythm, so the best trip for you depends on where you are starting from and what kind of fishing day you want.

Also known as: Blue Bass, Priestfish
