In addition, there are other herring stocks, e.g. near Iceland, in the North Sea and in the Skagerrak. Norwegian spring-spawning herring spend the winter in the Vestfjord area. In February/March, they begin migrating toward the grounds off the northerly part of the West Norwegian coast (Nordvestlandet), where most of the spawning occurs.
