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".

Its Inuit name was reported in 1838 as Ikalikhvik meaning "fish (or fish place)" by Aleksandr Filippovich Kashevarov. Various spellings were reported by Western Union Telegraph Expedition in 1865–67. Dall appears to be the first to have applied the name "Fish River" in 1870 when he wrote: "Golofnina Bay is connected with a large lagoon which opens in Grantley Harbor by the extremely winding channel of the Fish River, which has one principal tributary, the Kavi-ava-zak."
