The Atlantic cod, which can change color at certain water depths, has two distinct color phases: gray-green and reddish brown. Its average mass is 5-12 kilograms (11-26 lb), but specimens weighing up to 100 kilograms (220 lb) have been recorded. Cod feed on Mollusk, Crab, Sea_star, Worm, Squid, and small fish. Some migrate to warm water in winter to spawn. A large female lays up to five million eggs in midocean, a very small number of which survive. Pacific or saltwater cod are also found around the coast of British Columbia, Canada and the Northwestern US coastal areas. These fish are three times the size of their eastern counterparts.

What country does cod fish come from?

Asked by Wiki User

Cod are commecially fished for wherever they exist, and do not come from any 'country' as such. They are a cold-water species, typically fished for in the North Sea (off the eastern coast of the UK), and northwards towards the Arctic Circle, and the (northern) Atlantic. Any of the countries bordering these waters will have commercial fishing fleets that fish for cod (and haddock, etc), and these are often joined by massive 'factory' type trawlers / fishing vessels from other more distant countries, for example Spain.
