Redbanded rockfish In 1995, 280 tons were caught by longline off British Columbia. Often, though, this fish is taken as bycatch during trawling operations targeting other species, such as the yelloweye rockfish ("S. ruberrimus") and halibut ("Hippoglossus stenolepis"). Bycatch of this species in trawls off the coast of British Columbia well exceeded 1,000 tons in 1992. It has dropped below 300 tons per year since then due to better monitoring. This fish is host to a number of parasitic copepods, including "Chondracanthus pinguis", "C. triventricosus", "Clavella parva", "Colobomatus kyphosus", "Naobranchia occidentalis", "Peniculus asinus", and "Neobrachiella robusta".
