The whiting at Faroe spawn in spring at 25-l0Om depth all around the Islands except for the southwestern banks. Eggs and larvae are distributed around the Islands. The whiting prefer soft :bottom and all age groups are, therefore, most numerous in the coastal area and relatively rare on the banks. Maximum size is probably around 70cm.
