Explanation:

This region extends from Iceland to the Medi­terranean shores and pelagic, demersal and inshore fishing are all done on a highly organized basis by the European countries, especially the U.S.S.R., Norway, Denmark, Spain, Iceland and the U.K. Fishing is carried out all round the year in the shallow waters of the North Sea, the most vigorously exploited area being the Dogger Bank.

Spring is the busiest fishing season, but also the most hazardous because of the stormy weather. Casualty rates in the North Sea are higher than in any other major fishing region. The principal fish caught are herring, cod and mackerel. In the colder northern waters, haddock, turbot and halibut are caught and hake, skate, plaice and sole are also important. Farther south anchovies, pilchards and sardines are the main species and some tuna are found.
