You cant steal rockfish spots in np because they always move. I was in an area that was producing fat reds last week. .... today, nothing but croaker. There is not alot of major structure in Newport so the RF bed down on small shelves, dropoffs.... When you do find a school dont take your sweet time, you can lose a school just as fast as you found it and spend the rest of the day combing the desert. Good luck

P.s. 185' is a good place to start looking for fish marks if you have a ff. 185-205 is where you will have the most success
