http://www.dfg.ca.gov/news/Question: I know that rockfish, lingcod and all groundfish are open year round to shore-based anglers. Does that include pier anglers? Seems to me that piers are shore-based, but thought I'd best check to be sure since I don't see it spelled out in the regs.
Answer: Yes, pier anglers are considered shore-based anglers.
