| Abstract: | Blue whiting caught in January and April were stored in ice, iced sea water and at ambient temperature for varying lengths of time before freezing on board. Thawed fish samples were scored for gaping. The results indicate that storage in iced sea water before freezing reduced both gaping and the seasonal variability of the degree of gaping in the blue whiting. |
