Deep water rockfish season opened April 1 and the Pacific halibut is scheduled to open May 1. The nearshore rockfish season is slated to begin May 1 and run through September, opening again in November allowing for rockfish and crab combo trips. The California halibut bite in Humboldt Bay should start to take off later this month.
