Its principal spawning grounds are off Mid-Norway, Southwest Iceland and the Faroe Islands. Little is known about the haddock migration pattern. The young haddock in the Barents Sea tends to stay put, but larger fish migrate far. Some spawning migration occurs along the coast of North Norway, and thereafter back to the Barents Sea. Haddock is one of our major species of fish for human consumption. Most haddock fishing is coastal, but in the north fishing also takes place in the eastern reaches of the Norwegian Economic Zone. The fish is caugh year-round, but a special floating long-line catch is organized off the East Finnmark coast in the summer. The North Sea haddock catch is also an all-year event, since it is combined with fishing for other commercial species.
