Summary ²

Hexagrammos decagrammus, the Kelp Greenling, is a species of greenling that occurs in rocky nearshore areas of the northern Pacific and is common on kelp beds and on sand bottoms. They feed on crustaceans, polychaete worms, brittle stars, mollusks, and small fishes. The young are food for large predators such as Ling cod and halibut. They are frequently caught by hook and line, fishing from shore or skiff, as well as speared by divers.
