Here, Cod is fish. Fish is cod.
Personally, I like a nice wing of skate but have to save that for when back in UK.

A friend from NS who was a carpenter foreman in the oilpatch used to get salt cod sent in so his crew of easterners could make fish cakes like back home. By this trick he was able to keep the best guys for his own team. He also bemoaned the fact that "You can't get no good seal meat out here."

There was a sale at my local fish market today. I went to see what the catch was.

There was a joke about fishing I was going to post, but I forgot the bloody line.
