Spanish North Atlantic deep-water fisheries

The spanish fishing fleet catches deep-water species on both sides of the North Atlantic ocean. In terms of catches, the most important commercial species is the Greenland hatibut (Reinhardtius hippoglossoides) which is caught in the NAFO Divisions 3L, 3M and 3N. In this fishery most research has fo...
