Due to Hawaii's isolation 30% of the fish are endemic (unique to the island chain). [1] The Hawaiian Islands comprise 137 islands and atolls, with a land area of 6,423.4 square miles (16,636.5 km 2). [2] This archipelago and its oceans are physiographically and ethnologically part of the Polynesian subregion of Oceania.
The Pacific Ocean is the largest of the world's oceans, extending from the Arctic in the north to Antarctica in the south. Covering 169.2 million square kilometers, it is larger than all of the Earth's land area combined. [9] The Pacific contains 25,000 islands (over half the islands in the world), most of which are south of the equator.
The surfperches are a family of percomorph fishes, the Embiotocidae.They are mainly found in northeast Pacific Ocean (as far south as Baja California), but a few species (genera Ditrema and Neoditrema) are found in the northwest Pacific, and the tule perch is found in freshwater habitats in California, United States.
Redtail surfperch are caught from beaches (surf), piers, jetties and in estuaries, and are not reported from offshore deep-ocean areas. Size, age and sex of fish caught vary depending on location and time of year. Female fish containing developing embryos dominate the redtail surfperch caught inside estuaries upstream from the entrance and jetties.

Although small numbers of Pacific ocean perch are dispersed throughout their preferred depth range on the continental shelf and slope, most of the population occurs in patchy, localized aggregations. [7] Pacific ocean perch are generally considered to be semi-demersal but there can at times be a significant pelagic component to their distribution.
