Unless you know of a spot or spots, or have gps #s and a gps, fishing blind for rockfish is hard, however if you get a meter you will be looking for a dark jagged
lines on the bottom with rocky structure around in the area kelp will appear
as splotches connected to the floor and extending up, sand bottom will appear
as a somewhat smooth bottom, remember the rockfish want structure TO TAKE YOUR HOOK AND LINE BACK INTO TO HIDE, and then snag you, bigger models will
seem like you hook up, you will feel the shake then bam snag, just hang in there
give them ever so little amount of slack, not enough to allow them to spit the hook, just enough to allow them to move until you feel em again then work them out of the hole, you'll get um....there have been many a time I thought I lost rockfish in the kelp or rocks, and waited them out, hope that helps
