Consisting of dozens of related species and sold under several market names, the Pacific rockfish family is the most important year-round source of groundfish on the West Coast. Marketed widely as Pacific snapper, these fish have fillets that are mild and slightly sweet-tasting. Versatile and affordable, rockfish are a seafood staple for supermarkets and restaurants from Seattle to San Diego.

There are almost 70 species of rockfish found in the Eastern Pacific, ranging from the Bering Sea to Baja California, although only a dozen or so are caught in significant commercial quantities. Relatively slow-growing, rockfish range from 1 to more than 40 pounds, depending on the species.

According to the FDA, rockfish can be marketed as snapper or Pacific snapper, but only in the state in which they were harvested (i.e., not in interstate trade).
