 Main ref.
 Country
 
 Locality
 Northwest Atlantic, November 25
 Remark
 Canned products such as `blanched fish in oil' and `smoked fish in oil' can be prepared from the fresh and frozen fish. Glazed frozen fish has longer shelf-life than the Pacific saury because of less intense oxidation of the tissue fat.
