Editor's note: the scientific classification of the yelloweye rockfish is Sebastes ruberrimus. Known locally as Pacific red snapper, it is one of over thirty types of rockfish to inhabit the Gulf of Alaska. Slow to mature, they have a life expectancy of up to one hundred twenty-one years and are prone to overfishing. In 2010 they were listed as threatened in the Puget Sound / Georgia Basin area under the Endangered Species Act.
