Summary:From 6 January to 30 March three vessels were monitoring the spawning migration of the Barents Sea capelin. The main concentrations reached the Norwegian coast in the Varanger-Vardø area the first week of March, and from there started to move westwards along the coast in the second week of March. Spawning started in the Vardø area around 18 March and was probably still going on 23 April. The only other large spawning area observed, was at Fruholmen (29 March). In addition there probably was occasional spawning on a smaller scale along the coast.
