Stock assessment of NAFO subdivision 3PS pollock (Pollachius virens). : Fs70-6/2019-039E-PDF
"Pollock occur on both sides of the North Atlantic, on the North American side from southern Labrador around Newfoundland into the Gulf of St. Lawrence, and south to Cape Hatteras. Pollock is a member of the cod family (Gadidae), but unlike most gadids they are pelagic in nature spending little time near the bottom. They are voracious eaters and often congregate in large numbers. As pelagic larvae they feed mainly on copepods, but as they settle and move inshore, crustacea, mainly amphipods, are the preferred food. As they increase in size euphausiids, shrimp and small fish become part of the diet. In the offshore areas sand lance, herring, silver hake, redfish and lanternfish make up a large proportion of the diet"--Context, page [1].
