Bocaccio can be found from Stepovak Bay, Alaska to central Baja California, but they are most abundant from Oregon to northern Baja California. Juveniles stay in shallower water because of the protection provided by floating kelp mats or driftwood. Shallow water kelp forests and oil platforms also help these fish avoid danger, as they can use them to dodge and hide from predators. As the fish get older, they to move into deeper, colder water. The bocaccio is one of the larger rockfish and can grow up to 3 feet (0.91 m) in length and live to 45 years. Source: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bocaccio_rockfish
