I'll give some hints that will throw most people off!

Caught on November 21,2013(in a bottom trawl conducted for Monmouth University)
Released alive-except for one for the MU Ichthyology class in the spring.

Re: Fish ID?

IMHO,Its a Tomcod...

Nope,, you guys are right.. Didn't see the dark "thumbprint" on the side, I guess it is a little haddock.. In the bay??? wow..

The whole cod family looks pretty similar, but I think only the Haddock has the thumbprint mark..
Odd fish for the bay.. I one heard of a guy flounder fishing in cold weather that caught a lumpfish near the ammo pier, but a haddock in the Bay???.. pretty cool, but I wouldn't put the Cod rods into your 14 footer just yet. lol... bob
