Yes, provided that the fish was taken legally (meets minimum size requirements, seasons, etc.). This fish that will be used for bait does count towards the individual's daily bag and possession limit for that species.
Use of sanddabs & small rockfish as bait...
Question: I fish the ocean waters off Mendocino and Humboldt counties from a sport boat and target lingcod and other groundfish. My question is, can I use live sanddabs and small black and blue rockfish to catch lingcod?
Answer: Yes, you can catch these species to then use for bait in ocean waters as long as they are all taken and possessed legally. All seasons, bag and size limits apply, even if your catch is used as bait for lingcod, etc. The rockfish must be counted toward your RCG Complex bag limit.

This is very enlightening. Did not realize all of this. Thanks for pointing out my mistakes.
