Rockfish grow old. If you don't like that don't fish them. The enviros put out this shit to get people to back their anti-fishing crusades. Don't buy into it.
This as a deepwater fish mostly caught in a 1000 to 2000 feet of water by the commercials supplying companies like Redlobster with filet dinners. If people don't want to eat mature fish they can start there.
