Ive caught a couple hundred olives and that appeared to be a Yellowtail Rockfish, Olives even the smaller ones, usually don't have that much yellow in the fins and tails.

Without a proper DNA test this could go on for ever... LOL

North of Conception there are days you cant get to the bottom they are so thick.

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.
