Abstract
A total of 5000 1-group cod of Northeast Arctic and Norwegian coastal origi n were reared under similar conditions, anchor tagged and released at two s ites in western Norway. There were significantly more recaptures from the c oastal cod. No differences in migration patterns were detected, suggesting that mortality rates were higher in North-east Arctic cod.
