Abstract

The ICES herring assessment working group (HAWG) met in Aberdeen, Scotland from 12-21 March 2024 to assess the state of six herring (Clupea harengus) and one sprat (Sprattus sprattus) stock. Additionally, HAWG provided advice for eight Sandeel (Ammodytes spp.) in January 2023. The working group conducted update category 1 assessments for four of the herring stocks and category 3 assessments for 2 herring stocks. An analytical assessment was performed for the combined North Sea and Division 3.a sprat, and data limited assessment (ICES category 3) was conducted for English Channel sprat (spr.27.7de). Biennial advice is given for sprat in the Celtic Seas and West of Scotland with advice provided in 2023.
