"In 1982, a study was undertaken to investigate the frequency of Pacific herring in the diets of commercially important fishes, with primary emphasis on groundfish in Hecate Strait. The study was expanded to include other predatory fishes elsewhere, as well as all items in the stomachs of all predators sampled. Duration of the collection phase was September 1982-February 1983. Source of specimens was commercial landings at British Columbia processing plants. Eleven predator species, or species groups, were investigated--arrowtooth flounder; chinook salmon; coho salmon; lingcod; Pacific cod; Pacific hake; Pacific ocean perch; sablefish; skate; and spiny dogfish. This report deals with the stomach contents of Pacific cod"--Introduction, page [1].
