In saltwater unless targeting rockfish/groundfish or have any present on your vessel, you are legally allowed to use any amount of hooks on one line at a time.
Here is the CDFW code relating to A Rig usage on saltwater in California. General Ocean Fishing Regulations 28.65. Except as provided in this article, fin fish may be taken only on hook-and-line or by hand. Any number of hooks and lines may be used in all ocean waters and bays except: (a) San Francisco Bay, as described in Section 27.00, where only one line with not more than three hooks may be used. (c) When rockfish (genus Sebastes), California scorpionfish (Scorpaena guttata), lingcod (Ophiodon elongatus), cabezon (Scorpaenichthys marmoratus), or kelp or rock greenlings (Hexagrammos decagrammus and Hexagrammos lagocephalus) are aboard or in possession, where only one line with not more than two hooks may be used pursuant to Sections 28.55, 28.27, 28.28 or 28.29, respectively.
