Species ID, and limits

[cowboybill]

I have been attempting to brush up on my Species/limits...

I swear the DFG website is like looking at Tax codes! And in this modern age they say no taking of yelloweye rock fish (color pic=GOOD), but they say no taking of Bronze spotted rockfish, with no pic I could find! And for a cowcod, there is a small black and white pic that looks like a 1920s encyclopedia picture! WTF?

And the species page is very condensed, with limits only sometimes mentioned...

Part of my interest is several people have told me different limits for same species...I am sure these change, but hard to keep updated when the authorities do not provide simple, clear information..

Anybody discovered a better way (websites, books, etc. )

Thanks
