Abstract: Paper investigates feeding relationships of seasonal and residential fishes captured on a sandy substratum in the Irish Sea just off the coast of Dublin Bay. Fish were identified, measured, weighed, and the entire gut was removed and weighed. Prey items were identified to species level if possible. All fish were aged by examination of saggital otoliths.
