I saw a small school of pollock at a public aquarium recently. Very beautiful creatures with a distinct blue and grey colouring.

I work in seafood in a grocery store and i find it so funny that most people eat more pollock than any other fish but when they see an actual pollock fillet they don’t know wtf it is

It’s because pollock is cheaper than other fishes so that explains it

Same. Beer battered filets, same looking ones in the video. yum!

They serve this all the time in my college dining hall and I finally looked up the fish out of curiosity of why they serve it almost every day if fish is usually relatively expensive. Got my answer but I figured it was because it is a cheaper fish.

I used to catch pollocks using my tackle its very aggresive to lures. I like the taste of pollock too

Watching this while eating fish sticks!!

One of my favorite white fish for frying.

Interesting video, although I wanted to point out that the fish displayed at the beginning of the video is actually a Coalfish/Saithe and not a typical pollock, pollock belong to en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pollachius_pollachius and coalfish belongs to en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pollachius_virens - I also believe that the statistics in your video are classing all pollachius in this number, so it is slightly misleading that it is not one species of fish that is most fished, but actually several variants of a family of similar fish

It is neither a coalfish or a pollock, the alaska pollock (Gadus chalcogrammus) is closer to cod.

I love fish but I only eat my LOCAL fish shops fish and my own fish mostly my own and only in season so I fish stuff like trout, salmon, mackerel,cod,mussels,cockles,oysters and crabs seafood truly is the best and easiest food to eat

What’s the cost of catching and shipping it to China. Then shipping it back here. Then trucking it to all the distribution centers. Then to your table. You’re telling me that people hear can box up a processed fillet o fish sandwich (poorly) for $10 an hour but they can’t gut a fish for the same money in their own backyard? We’re in bigger trouble than I thought.

U can find frozen and salted polock in store for few dollars. Its not expensive, it's alright fish. Most fish taste same so I don't know what the big deal is.

I just fried 2 blocks with just some spice and pepper. Mmmmm 👌

Came from mashed's filet o fish video

I just had this for lunch and it was GREAT!!

I find Pollack bland & tasteless & will never buy it again. Trout is my favorite.

POLLOCK Fish

people don't care cuz its cheap. how'd we get so stupid.

That's a black cod........duh

'Some UK fish trivia! - Pollock' is not the same fish as the fish known as 'Pollack' in the UK - spelled different, but .. here's the really confusing bit - they are usually spelled the the same anyway and, understandably, assumed to be the same. They are different to eat, for sure. 'Pollock' is Coalfish. 'Pollack' is common around UK coasts , and is relatively poor eating, sadly. The "Pollock" that UK residents get served in a chippy, will almost certainly not have been caught 'off the local pier' and is almost certainly going to be the tastier 'Pollock - aka Coley/Coalfish' . When I fish, I throw Pollack back. I keep the Coalfish. Shame that , as Pollack are much, much more numerous to catch. (If any of that is incorrect, somebody can advise ;) )
