First time I’ve heard a Stripper referred to a Rockfish. There are lots of different species of rockfish. I don’t think that is one of them.

Why do y'all call Stripers Rockfish? They don't live in the rocks. Just wondering. The Rockfish in the ocean on the left coast live in the rocks. Just Sayin.

Depends:
Rockfish range from the intertidal zone to almost 3,000 meters or 9,800 feet deep. You will usually find them living benthically on substrates, often around rock outcrops.
Rockfish live in a variety of habitats. Some live on rocky reefs or seafloors in nearshore shallow waters. Others live on the deep seafloor or in the water column. In giant kelp forests, rockfish hover motionless under the kelp canopy, buoyed by their air bladders.
