Estimates of gastric evacuation rates (GER) are needed to calculate consumption rates of fish from field-collected data on stomach contents. The results of 16 GER experiments designed to determine the effects of body size, prey type, and temperature on the GER in young-of-the-year (age-0) bluefishPomatomus saltatrixare presented. The linear, square-root, and exponential GER models similarly fit the data. Temperature had a highly significant effect on age-0 bluefish GER. However, there was no significant difference in GER between small (5.14 g wet weight) and large (35.99 g wet weight) age-0 bluefish. Among the three different prey types tested (age-0 striped bassMorone saxatilis, bay anchovyAnchoa mitchilli, and age-0 Atlantic menhadenBrevoortia tyrannus) there was no significant difference in GER. The exponential relation between bluefish GER and temperature can be used in estimating age-0 bluefish consumption rates in the field.
