I hear you Ryan. My first thought was Olive, probably because I've caught more of them, but at that size they are hard to tell apart, it's fins are pretty yellow and it could just as easily be a Yellowtail rockfish.
I guess the first answer is best since I've heard deckhands call both Olives and Yellowtails Johnny Bass.
