Fishing here as a whole has been practiced for more than one century. So, in the XIX century. Dried cod production has been one of the main exports and an important part of the industry in northern Norway. In addition, mackerel, cod, capelin, herring, sea bass are caught in the waters. At the same time, the Norwegian Sea has suffered from overfishing in recent years. In 2018, 41% of stocks were overfished.Also a significant place in this industry was occupied by whaling. In the early 1600s, the Englishman Stephen Bennet began hunting walruses. In May 1607 they discovered a large population of walruses and whales in the Norwegian Sea and began to hunt them near Svalbard. In the second half of the XVII century. Dutch ships began to hunt bowhead whales. Then other countries joined them. For nearly two centuries, the waters between Jan Mayen, Svalbard, Bear Island and Greenland, and between the seas, have been the most productive whaling area in the world. At the same time, by the beginning of the 20th century. the fishery ended due to the fact that hunting destroyed the whales in the area. Now here you can find sei whales, northern minke whales, killer whales and humpback whales.
