FWW--I can find out the yield on the cod if you want. I work with a fish cutter, he should know. Question: why do they care about the yield? when you lost 120Ibs. Is it because they want to know the market value of the whole fish?
$1.50 pound whole cod, or 4.99 for filet.
120 pounds at 4.99= 600 bucks
36 rigged eels, call it a buck an eel plus labor 40 bucks
15 pounds of squid at a buck a pound............................................. ................are these the kinds of things they are after?

Let me know if you want the yield, but your guess sounds right; could be low though.
