Special significance of the species

We are not aware of any special significance of canary rockfish outside of its economic importance in the commercial fisheries and modest role in recreational fisheries. As far as we know, catches are small in First Nations’ fisheries, but its cultural significance may be larger than is reflected by the size of the catches.
