The latest years, it is evident that most of the mackerel present in the
North Sea belongs to the Western stock, since the yearly catches by far
exceed the presumed size of the North Sea stock.
The Norwegian tagging data have been revised to obtain estimates of the
percentage of Western mackerel in the catches in the North Sea. By
combining these data with the distribution of catches, a reasonable
estimate of the migration of the Western mackerel to the North Sea may be
obtained.
