What is the fish listed as "scrod" in New England restaurants?

The name comes from a Middle Dutch word "schrode"
meaning a strip or shred.
In New England scrod may be immature cod
or haddock weighing 11/2 to 21/2 pounds.
Sometimes the term is applied to cusk
of about the same weight, or to pollock weighing
11/2 to 4 pounds.
When fishermen use the word, they are usually referring to gutted small haddock.
