Who am I??

Here’s the latest in our Name that Fish game…this cute little fella typically runs 6 to 18 inches and inhabits near-coastal rockpiles and kelp beds from Central California to Alaska. He loves small fish, crabs and shrimp and is often caught by anglers with squid, mussels and jigs…though mostly incidentally.

Here’s another big hint….

These guys make really, really good lingcod bait (where legal, of course!). Any ideas??
