Looks like a copper rockfish

I honestly hadn't considered copper, the white is less pronounced than I expected, but it does seem to match the description.

Copper gets my vote too. When I go out looking for rockfish I keep my phone handy with the screen captures of the CADFW instructional on identifying the restricted rockfish. The phone hangs on my neck in a clear dry bag, so it's easy to get to in a hurry.
