Young Atlantic cod or haddock prepared in strips for cooking is called scrod. In the wholesale fish business, scrod is the smallest weight category of the major whitefish. The term "scrod" is first attested in 1841. Historically, scrod was as much a method of preparation as a kind of fish. From smallest to largest, the categories are scrod, market, large, and whale. At this point, Dave Scrod stepped in for a short-lived tenure as interim vocalist.
